Timed Loop Events
How relay teams work:
Each relay member will take turns running the 4 mile loop following each other in order, for the duration of the event they signed up for. Teams are allowed to take breaks between loops to rest, eat, use the restrooms, etc. or you can keep running consistently. Upon check-in, relay teams will submit a running order roster and must remain in that order to be "competitive" but may switch it up or start in an unorganized way, and become "helter skelter", meaning you're ineligible for top finisher team awards BUT will still receive a medal, official finishing time, etc.
The Experience
Near the Star/Finish line, teams and runners may day and/or night camp in a designated area. Glamping tents will be available Friday through Monday. All self camp supplies must be provided by campers and tents / awnings must be properly staked down. A full aid station and access to crew is located at the start and accessible at the 2 mile turn around location. Near the start/finish line you'll also have access to: portable toilets, hand washing stations, barn with warm and cold food available 24/7 for runners only + available for purchase by spectators, sauna, cold plunges, Friday night movie showing, pre-race breakfast, Saturday night country dance, Monday morning MURPH Workout, music, coffee, water and electrolytes.
How to Register a Team
The first person to sign up creates a team name and password. Share the information with team mates. Each team member pays for their own registration fee.
