Aid Stations
- Mile 2.60 – Overlook
- Mile 6.10 – Start/Finish
Both are FULL aid stations stocked Texas-style: Gatorade, water and electrolyte mix; Coke, ginger ale and maybe orange soda; cookies, candy, peanut butter and Nutella; Pringles, trail mix and chips; PB&Js, bean burrito rolls and fruit. Later in the day: quesadillas, soups, ramen, potatoes and other fun concoctions. Medical basics (bandages, Vaseline, band-aids – NO NSAIDs) and feminine care products. There is usually a surprise too – we have had sheet cake, pies and watermelon!
Cupless Racing
We DO NOT have cups at the aid stations. Please bring a reusable cup, bottle or hydration pack.
Drop Bags
There will be a large tarp area for drop bags at the main aid station and at the other aid station.
Pacers & Crew
There are no pacers for any distance. Crew is allowed at both aid station locations.
Drop Downs & Distance Changes
Once your race begins, that is the distance you must finish to receive a medal for that distance. There is no dropping distances during the race – you will be listed as a DNF.
Online distance changes are open until the Wednesday of race week on UltraSignup: log in, go to Registration History, click Edit on this race, choose the new distance under Switch Event? and check out right away (there is a small UltraSignup fee when moving up). All other changes must be made in person and may not be possible for sold-out distances.
