Event Details
The Virgil Crest Ultras take place in Cortland, New York. The event offers several distances: a 100 Miler, a 50 Miler, and a 50K. There is also a 100 Mile Relay option.
Course & Terrain
The course features significant ascents and descents, with steep sections and a high cumulative elevation gain and loss. The terrain includes singletrack forest trails with technical sections. Organizers state the course will be different from previous years, with a major shift planned. A full course map will be released later.
