Autumn Leaves 50M/50K/30K

Announcements Registration opening June 1st! That gives you 4.5 months to train...Prices increase $10 on Oct 19th. Registration closes end-of-day Oct 22nd, 2026. Course Description The course is a 10k loop consisting of 80% paved bike path and 20% dirt single track. It is built for speed as the course is very flat with some small rollers for fun. 50K runners will complete 5 loops and the 50-milers will do 8 loops. Despite the trail section, the whole course is typically runnable in road shoes. You will need a headlamp for your first lap, as it WILL be dark. Working up to running ultra distances? Try the 30k, and run 3 loops with a later start time. Kids can join us for a free 1k Kids Run (parent/guardian must pre-register child online or sign waiver day-of-race).

Pacers and Crew All runners participating in the 50k race are allowed to have a pacer for the last 2 loops, and all runners participating in the 50 mile race are allowed to have a pacer for the last 3 loops. Pacers must sign a waiver and wear a pacer bib, and are welcome to use the aid stations. They may not mule (carry

supplies) for their runner.Support crew access is at the start/finish, and at the mid-course aid station near Oak Grove. Awards Awards will be given for the top 3 finishers in each timed event (30K, 50K, 50M) in the following categories:- Overall Men, Women, Nonbinary; and Masters Men, Women and Nonbinary - Finish place will be determined by Finish Time, not Chip Time. First over the line gets the award. Completion of the lap at the turn around will be verified by timing mat or course marshall. Otherwise, the runner will be marked DNF and ineligible for finish awards. A "Spirit of Autumn Leaves" prize will be awarded for the finisher displaying the best spirit, most often awarded to the runner wearing the best costume, or costumes (with changes made each lap during the race) in each event. Other qualifying activities may be considered at the discretion of the RDs, and may include dancing, singing or recitation of spooky verses?

Portapotties will be at the start/finish area, and an additional potty will be midway along the course. We will have warm food, drinks and prizes at our finish celebration. Race Scholarships to Promote Equity in Sport At our running events, we strive to promote inclusivity for all participants. While it's true that running "only" requires a pair of shoes (plus hours and months of training!), we understand that barriers to entry exist, both financial and cultural. To address this, ORRC volunteers have generously donated race credits to a "Pay it Forward Fund" that we may apply toward race fees. We specifically encourage members of the BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities to apply for race entry fee

coverage by emailing the race directors. We want to emphasize that everyone is welcome at our races, and we're here to answer any questions. Gender, Inclusion and Fair Sport Policy Goal: To create a fair, inclusive and affirming space for people of all genders, identities and experiences to participate in athletic events, while also promoting fairness in award competitions.During registration, all entrants can select a gender division for the race – men (open), women, or nonbinary. Each gender division will have its own results, podium and awards. To be eligible for prizes, participants register in the gender division in which they qualify at the time of race registration.

without regard to hormone treatment.- Athletes who have begun gender-affirming treatment that includes testosterone or androgen supplementation may compete in either the men's (open) or nonbinary divisions.Policy Enforcement: The gender and category that a runner selects during registration will be accepted as is. As such, no harassment of individuals, nor challenges to a runner's gender or division, will be allowed or tolerated.This policy will be updated as needed to ensure fair and inclusive practices.Lactation Policy: we affirm the right for individuals (athletes and spectators) to nurse and pump.
