It is the sort of course that flatters a first ultra: nothing technical enough to hurt you, but enough terrain to make the distance feel earned. The camping is a real part of this one, not an afterthought. Book a lakefront site through the park, or take primitive tent and car camping in the adjacent parking lot right next to the course, about 150 meters from the main trailhead. Hot post-run soup, pancakes, and campfire camaraderie wait at the finish, along with music and a post-race hangout full of good vibes and great stories.

Every loop counts, so it is not about who gets to 100 first. If two runners finish the same number of loops, the one who completed that last loop first places ahead. Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K: the fastest three finishers will each receive a trophy. Age Group Awards (Male & Female) The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers in each of 15 age categories will earn an age group medal — a custom piece to add to your finisher's lanyard at the end of the event. In the 36 Hour, age group places also go to the most loops completed.
