Logistics and policies
Aid at the start/finish serves as the central headquarters and offers traditional ultra snacks, electrolytes, soda, and hot food at night; a food truck serves registered runners. Pacers are permitted during the overnight window midnight to 6:00 AM. Packet pickup and camping are located at Rob Jaggers Campground near the start/finish; camping is first-come, first-served. The event requires a reusable cup because it is a cupless race. Awards include buckles for 100- and 80-mile finishes and special buckles or medals for other achievements. The organizer states no refunds, deferrals, or transfers. The event includes policies for athletes with disabilities and for transgender and non-binary entrants.
