Time Cut offs – We do feel we need to have some limit to ensure safety and not over-burden Park officials and volunteers. We are going to “loosely” hold 50K runners to a 20 minute-per-mile limit – This means 4 hours at first passing of aid station #3 at 12.25 miles & 8 hours at same point next loop. If you have not reached aid station #3 by these times, you will be asked to head back or receive a ride back to finish area.

Packet pick up / late registration is Friday, April 22 from 4:30 to 6 PM CST & Saturday, April 23 from 6:30 to 7:45 AM at the pavilion across from the Nature Center located near the North entrance of the park. Park Map link – Here is a 2015 BLOG with elevation data at bottom – Pre-event information will be sent to participants the week of the event. Half Marathon – we will HOLD packet pickup from 7:45 to 8:15 to start 50K & resume until 9:45 before 10 AM CST start of half marathon.

Aid Stations – Please review map for locations of 3 aid stations on loop. THERE IS ABOUT 7 MILES BETWEEN 1ST & 2ND AID STATIONS – PLEASE CARRY FLUIDS AT LEAST – Stations will have water, BASE performance drink, pretzels, oranges, bananas, Clif Bar chomps / mini bars, and may have single serve potato chips & such – depends on what we can find mass quantities of!
