The course

Where it goes multi-loop · 3 aid stations

Course line from the race's own GPX. Source file. Recorded 2027.

Six loops of 16.8 miles at Colt Creek State Park, with three full-service aid stations and drop bag access every loop. Finishers get a belt buckle. Finishing in 30 hours or less earns a Western States lottery ticket.

No elevation figures are published. The park is described as longleaf pine flatwoods, thick cypress domes and open vistas. The trails are multi-use, so runners may meet horses.

The race
