The loop is 3 miles, has roughly 144ft of climb, and is completely runnable, with the majority being single-track dirt trails. Although the course will be marked with glow sticks and reflective markers, you should still bring a headlamp or a light source. We will have one main aid station at the start/finish line stocked with snacks, cold water, sodas, watermelon and Tailwind hydration...open throughout the night. We'll fire up the grill when coyotes st
