This is a fat ass or self-supported run. You're supposed to carry/plan everything you need for your run. The water stops as name implied only promise water. No refund, no transfer, no wait list, no course marking, no t-shirt, no medal, no certificate, nothing, just come and run. It's not a run for everyone, regardless how many 100 milers you have finished. You can not just sign up and run. You won't finish it.
1). There is no course marking. You'll need to navigate and stay on course by yourself.
2). The support is VERY limited.The first water stop will be on 50K. You'll need to be very self-reliant and very efficient on fuel and fluid.
3). The cutoff is 24hrs for 100 miler. You'll need to run fast!
I don’t require a qualifier since it’s over simplified. If you really want to know what to take to finish this run, here's my take:
1). Finished a trail 100 miler in 24hrs, or any 100 miler PLUS a 3:20 or better marathon recently.
2). Train really hard on navigation, self-reliant, efficient on fuel and fluid.
3). Train running on roads if you're just a trail runner, or running on trails for road runners. The course are about half roads and half trails.
