Race format and logistics
- 50k : 5 loops, about 6,000 ft elevation gain
- 100k : 10 loops, about 12,000 ft elevation gain
The course consists of roughly 6-mile loops on a mix of singletrack and gravel trails with technical sections and notable hills. Two aid stations will be open throughout the event: Start/Finish and Ironwood Summit (about 3 miles). The event uses a 24-hour cut-off for both distances. Only 100k runners may use a pacer for the final 50k; all pacers must register, sign a waiver, check in to pick up a bib, and follow race rules. Event registration includes a 2026 tech shirt and stickers; all finishers receive a medal and the top three male and female finishers in each distance receive awards.
