The race will feature a mixture of road running, single track trail, and fire road. We are limiting this edition of the race to 200 runners between both events so make sure you register early!
Aid Stations will be placed at Gray's Arch parking area, Koomer Ridge Campground, and Auxier Ridge parking area. Stay tuned to our social media and this page for updates including swag, packet pickup, and other cool announcements!
