Gravel Worlds® is a multi-day, multi-event. Expo Thursday/Friday. Running Friday. Cycling Saturday, and Tri on Sunday.
Run gravel around the outskirts of Lincoln NE. Rolling hills on gravel roads, beautiful sunrise with a small amount on one of our favorite trails. 50k does the 25k loop twice, 25k loop once, 10k and 5k are a loop course as well.
Nebraska is not flat!! (At least not around Lincoln where the race is). There will be about 1,100 ft of elevation in the 16 miles. For most of the race you will be going either up or down the entire time. There is no single killer climb that will wreck you, but there is hill after hill after hill that will be along the entire course. Averaging 4-5% grade either up or down the entire course.
Part of the challenge of the Gravel Worlds Run Series is that the event is self-supported. Runners are required to finish the event without any form of outside support that isn’t provided by the race. Once a runner leaves the start line, they can not take any outside support. No team vehicles or families out on the course. Water and basic nutrition will be provided at aid stations and checkpoints, but any specific nutrition needs will need to be carried by the runner.
Courses will be marked!! However we do recommend runners have a form of navigation in case signs being altered or stolen. GPS files and downloadable cue cards will be provided through RideWithGPS and Garmin Connect.
