This race is very low key,everyone’s friendly and helpful,the course is mostly flat and easy to navigate,plenty of parking and restrooms,RV spaces,inexpensive, but brutally hot and humid. I’ve done this race three times so far- first time I made it,2nd two I didn’t. I’ll be there again next year trying to improve on my first year’s time without crashing and burning. I’m a back of the packer at best. This is the only hundred miler that gives someone like me even the slightest chance of making the cutoff time- 40 hours. You won’t find a more generous time anywhere that’s flat. It’s a fun experience.
Great beginner/walker friendly race

This is the most doable 100 miler of any that I could find anywhere three years ago,and I’m so glad I did find it. It is perfect for someone like me who is older,not fast(walk/jog), can’t afford a lot,doesn’t want to get lost or be too far from an aid station, and is relatively new to ultras. This race gives the most generous cut off time of any I’ve seen- 40 hours! If you can walk,you can do this. The only big hurdle is surviving the heat. Everyone is friendly,helpful,and supportive. I highly recommend this race,especially for beginners.
Great race, fantastic support
Organization and aid station are top notch. I love a looped course and this is nice and smooth. The heat is a challenge! I keep coming back for this one. MORE
