Aid Station
For this event the 30K & 60K will have 5 aid stations including the start finish. One of these aid stations will only have water/ice and snacks (Juniper Ridge) and another will be hit twice in one loop (Wolf Mountain).
The 10K & 20K will have 2 aid station including the start/finish aid station. Both of these aid stations will be fully serviced.
The 5K will not have any aid stations on course, it will only have access to aid at the beginning and end of the loop. Please make sure to bring enough water to get through 5 miles, not just a 5k. Summertime will wear out even the most seasoned of runner, regardless if it's day or night, so be smart and hydrate wisely!
For this event at a "fully serviced" aid station, you will be able to find the following for fuel:
Cookies, PBJ sandwiches, Oranges, Bananas, Watermelons, Pickles, Pickle Juice, , Fruit Snacks, Pringles, Coke, Mt. Dew, Ginger Ale, Tailwind & Saltstick
We have found that these items will allow runners to properly fuel themselves to get through any ultra.
Disclaimer: We are a CUPLESS EVENT! For those new to the trail running world/etiquette, we like to treat our venues with respect and do not use plastic or styrofoam to serve out water. Please bring your own cup, water bottle, hydration vest, or other form of water containment so we can help maintain the clean environment we are permitted to use for this event.
