What to Bring?

Aid. (Course description, food, water, electrolyte drink, bug spray, bear bells, suntan cream, rain jacket, gloves, etc. As an experienced trail runner, you know what you need to be self-sufficient on the trails.) If you expect and are prepared for no external aid, you may be pleasantly surprised... but do not count on it!
Official timing system. (A watch will do, even if the second hand doesn't work. You are responsible for submitting your finish time if you want to go down in the results)
Change of clothes. (Bring soap, a towel and bathing suit if you plan to go for a hot tub or steam at Griffin Gym afterwards.)
Crew. Yes, your family and friends are most welcome to come along to feed and encourage you! See course description for Reference Points where they might meet you

parking, showers and change facilities (07:00 to 16:00) are available at Griffin Recreation Center, the start and finish of the event. Parking is free. There is a pool, sauna, hot tub and steam room at the gym. Entry is $4.50 (less for just a shower)
