Description
The Mad Mallard 3, 6, and 12-hour trail race......AT NIGHT!
Have you ever wanted to try trail running? How about an ultra? How about AT NIGHT?
Do you have a long ultra coming and need some night training? Do you need to test out some night gear? This is your race!
Runners will start at 7 p.m.- that's right, 7 p.m., right before sunset- and run a 3-ish mile trail loop along the Duck River and through the cedar and hardwood forest of Henry Horton State Park for 3, 6, or 12 hours. The loop is 3 miles, has roughly 144ft of climb, and is completely runnable, with the majority being single-track dirt trails.
Although the course will be marked with glow sticks and reflective markers, you should still bring a headlamp or a light source.
We will have one aid station at the start/finish line stocked with snacks, cold water, and sodas open throughout the night.
This will be a laid-back, grassroots event. Family, friends, and spectators are always welcome. Pop a tent and stay for a while!
I've also heard rumors that the Scal-a-wag Trail Running Club will be hanging around to pace, motivate, and help out through the evening!
Each runner will receive a finisher's medal, and awards will be given to the runners who accumulate the most laps in the 3, 6, and 12-hour races.
