Mad Mallard 3, 6 and 12 HR NIGHT TIME trail race

The Mad Mallard 3, 6, and 12-hour trail race......AT NIGHT!  

Have you ever wanted to try trail running? How about an ultra? How about AT NIGHT?

Do you have a long ultra coming and need some night training? Do you need to test out some night gear? This is your race!

Runners will start at 7 p.m.- that's right, 7 p.m., right before sunset- and run a 3-ish mile trail loop along the Duck River and through the cedar and hardwood forest of Henry Horton State Park for 3, 6, or 12 hours. The loop is 3 miles, has roughly 144ft of climb, and is completely runnable, with the majority being single-track dirt trails.

Although the course will be marked with glow sticks and reflective markers, you should still bring a headlamp or a light source.

We will have one aid station at the start/finish line stocked with snacks, cold water, and sodas open throughout the night.

This will be a laid-back, grassroots event. Family, friends, and spectators are always welcome. Pop a tent and stay for a while!
