Schedule Of Events

Race Date/Start Time Details

The combined number of participants for the 25 and 50 mile runs will be limited to 300.

We will be using two (2) “waves” to disperse the runners at the start of the race. The first wave will be for the 50 milers; the 25 milers will be in the second wave.

The first 50 mile wave will start at 6:30 am. The 25 miler wave will begin at 6:45. The race will close for all runners by 6:30 pm. As in the past, aid stations will start to close based on the 50 miler cut off times available elsewhere on the website.

We will be using chip timing for the race. BE SURE TO CROSS AN ELECTRONIC PAD WHEN STARTING, FINISHING, AND AT THE 50 MILER TURNAROUND.

The Community Center indoor area will be available on a limited basis to runners at the start of the race. Port-a-potties may also be available outside. It is usually around freezing in the early morning, so runners should be prepared.

The trails used for the race were changed in recent years due to needs of US Forest Service, BLM and other authorities. The rerouting of the race will make the 25 mile course 25.3 miles long (and 50 mile 50.6).

For 50 milers, the cut off time for turning around to do a second loop is 12:15 pm. The Aid station cut-off times will remain as they were in previous years. The permitted finish time for all runners is 6:30 p.m.

Packet Pickup Details

We will be making limited use of the Community Center indoor space, basically using the Community Center for packet pick up on Friday, May 6, starting at 3:30 in the afternoon and running until 7:30 pm. Packet pick on Saturday morning will run from 5:15am to 6:00 am.

We ask only participants enter the building to pick up their packets.

The packets will be “pre-packaged” with everything that a runner needs to have, including your race number, safety pins, a T shirt of the size you indicated in your registration, and A PRE-RACE MEETING HANDOUT (course updates, course conditions, weather forecast comments, etc). The race director and/or other volunteers will be available for some questions as well.

Pre-Race Meeting will be held from 7:30 to 8:00 pm.

Post Race Events Details

You will be asked to select your lunch option at the time of your registration, and a bag with your lunch choice, marked with your bib number, will be available for pick up when you have finished your run. We may not have indoor seating for eating available.

We my not have awards’ ceremonies or, possibly we will have award announcements on a rolling basis. We will provide the trophies/ribbons/certificates for the overall and age groups either when you finish (if we find you) or we will mail them to you to the address provided on your registration.

Results will be available on Ultra sign up. We are still working out details but expect you will be able to see the results “live” as the race progresses on this site.

We are planning for there to be a Beer garden this year!

The coin-operated outdoor showers may or may not be available – the Town will make the decisions concerning their availability.
