9 Hours for 9 Lives Ultra

Run or walk as many loops (yes loops)** as you wish! This is an active produce farm you will be running around! There will be hills, grass, dirt, mild ruts, some trail through the woods, and maybe even a little mud depending on the weather leading up to the event! You will be greeted by the resident golden retrievers and the many barn cats that are loved by their owners and cared for in the past by Colony Caregivers! There will be hand crafted medals for all and prizes for top performers!

There will be two loops. The first loop will be run for the first 4.5 hours and the second loop will be run for the last 4.5 hours. The first loop is a little more friendly for those who want to come out with family and do a loop or two to support the cause. The second loop has a touch more elevation and spends a little more time in the trees but is still runnable. Both loops will be 1.75 miles long.

Timing will be provided by HourGlass Works. There will be an aid station stocked with the usual fare and you are encouraged to bring your own aid and a comfy chair to set up along the course. Portapotties will be on site.

Fish's Farm Market will have their greenhouses open and it will likely be strawberry season so plan accordingly! Their berries are the best!

Proceeds benefit Colony Caregivers. Colony Caregivers provides care for feral and colony cats in and around Ontario County. Many of the kitties at Fish's have been the result of unwanted mama-cats-to-be that get dropped off at their farm in the night and Colony Caregivers has helped provide spay/neuter and healthcare services to them and their babies so they can lead healthy lives!
