2024 Race Rules:
1. All runners are required to carry water on them during the event. Runners without water will be disqualified and asked to leave the course.
2. This is a cupless race, so bring a cup (or water bottle) to use for drinking at the start/finish and at aid stations along the course. There will not be any cups available at the race.
3. You will be placed into a wave start based on your anticipated finish. Please be honest about where you think you'll finish. And don't complain about where you're placed. You can start in a wave behind your assigned wave, but not in a wave earlier...
If you want to ensure you start in the same wave as a friend, please be sure to put the same anticipated finish as them.
4. All runners must check-in/register by 8:15am on race day.
5. All runners must reach the turn-around by 2.5 hours (~11:20am) after starting or you will be removed from the race. Runners must also reach the Summit House inbound by 3 hours (~11:50am) after starting or you will be removed from the race. This is not meant to be pejorative, but rather helps ensures the safety of all on the course and helps make the race sustainable in the future. [Note - if you anticipate struggling to finish within the time cut-offs, email the RD for consideration of an early start. This will be granted on a case-by-case basis.]
6. Anyone under the age of 18 that is hoping to register must contact the race director (at [email protected]) prior to registration as well as have a parent/guardian complete the waiver form on their behalf.
7. Due to trail considerations and permitting requirements, the race is capped at 500 runners. Since race demand has continued to grow in recent years, we have a waitlist for 2024 for those who wish to register after this cap has been reached. When a spot becomes available, the first person on the waitlist will be automatically placed in the race and their credit card will be charged. If you are on the waitlist and no longer wish to race, it is your responsibility to notify the registrar to be removed from the waitlist. (*For the record, everyone on the 2023 waitlist was ultimately offered a spot if they waited…so we encourage patience!)
Please note that the event will be held rain, snow, or shine.
Registration Notes
Registrations are not transferrable or deferrable. However, runners who withdraw prior to April 19st are eligible for $40 refund so long as there is a waitlist.
Prizes will be given to:
Top 3 overall (M/F category) [note - top 3 will be based on first 3 across the finish line]
First runner in each age catagory (based on chip time): 19 & under, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59 and 60+ (M/F)
Good luck to all registrants and enjoy your training!
