Endless Summer running fest, and lake party!
Description Between June 20, 8AM and June 21, 8PM you get 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, or 36 hours to clock as many 1 mile loops around Catfish Lake as you can. The loop is a dirt / gravel road with a brief grass section, and about 120 feet of elevation change. This is THE trail race for road runners. At the start / finish you can expect a non-stop party with good food, good music, and summer vibes. Cool off in the lake, or the misting tent, hit the slip 'n' slide, or hang by the overlook. With a beautiful summit lake on one side, and a beautiful mountain view on the other, this is sure to be the summer days you always hoped for. If you don't want to run, get a Hang Pass to enjoy everything the runners get, but the pain (basically just food, and drinks). However, you do not have to have one to come support a runner.
Giveaways Each runner will get a sweet tank, a sticker, and whatever other fun things we can scrounge up in the next 5 months!
Awards Top 3 male, and female distance of each duration will receive an award. While you may start any duration at any time, you are only eligible for a duration award if you start at the official June 20, 8AM start. Specific distance awards are in the works, including a buckle for 100+ milers.
Ceremonies Will be held right after each duration (2PM, 8PM, 2AM, 8AM, 2PM, 8PM).
Parking will be at the Belcher Tract parking lot off 280. There is a 0.8 mile walk / jog to the start / finish. We plan to rent some golfcarts, or ATVs for shuttling though.
Camping Bring whatever you need to make yourself successful: tents, specific foods, camp stoves, sleeping pad, etc. But let's try to keep it to a 10'x10' maximum. Tent spaces will be limited.
Food There will be a constant aid station at the start / finish with all the regular ultra-grub. We will serve breakfast on day two (7AM-9AM), Lunch both days (11AM-1PM), and dinner both days (6PM-8PM). And if there's something you want / need at anytime, just ask. We will do our best to accommodate. If you don't want to run, but you do want to eat, get a Hang Pass!
Recreation While swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, and floating are allowed, they are not part of the official event, and will be done at your own risk.
