BIG Change
Due to a few factors we have decided to forgo the team options on both the run & hike events. You are still able to bring ALL the friends and complete the event together but no longer have to worry about the registration process, finish together timing or worrying of finding a NEW partner if yours ends up unable to attend.

Camping is still available Fri and/or Sat nights in the group area for $2 per night. per person. Add this to your registration
