About This Race
This intermediate duration extends the 8-hour experience with an additional 30 minutes that can prove surprisingly valuable. The extra half-hour often allows runners to complete one more loop or push through a challenging patch without time pressure. This option suits runners seeking a middle ground between the standard 8-hour format and longer endurance commitments.
The course consists of a 4.5-mile loop that includes a scenic section along the lake at Camp Sinawa. The route offers minimal elevation challenge with only 330 feet of gain per loop, making it well-suited for runners focused on distance accumulation rather than technical terrain navigation. The loop format allows for excellent spectator and crew access while providing consistent aid station support.
