Registration Requirements

Qualifying

As a tough 120 mile event which includes many remote backcountry sections,  it is mandatory that you have minimum 100 km previous experience within the past two years either as a race or self-supported single effort; however it is highly recommended that you have completed a previous 100 mile race or event. If you are using a self-supported effort, please email us proof of completion.  If it is a race with searchable results, simply list the race and date of completion. For first time racers, a pacer is highly recommended at least for the final stretch.  If you choose to register without a qualifying event, you will be dropped down to the next available distance with no refund provided until you have a qualifying event. 

For the 100km, it is highly recommended that you have a minimum 50 km experience, either as a race or other single effort run.

There are no minimum requirements for the 40 mile event.

You must be 18 years or older on race day to participate in any distance.

Trail Work/Race volunteering

Giving back is a core value of our race community.  Please see our Trail Work page for all the details on what satisfies your trail work requirement.

Should you be unable to race in the year you register and qualify for a deferral, volunteer hours do not carry forward.  Proof of volunteer hours or contribution to the trail maintenance fund will be required for the year in which you race.
