Regulations

*2025 Race Regulations Coming Soon.

The mandatory gear list that is contained in the below document what we believe is the absolute minimum to keep you safe during the event and in the Shenandoah Valley weather systems can be unpredictable. The course passes through remote trails, where protection from the elements and medical/support services could be some time/distance from athletes needing assistance. It is therefore imperative that the mandatory gear is carried at all times. In order to reduce waste, we are a cup-less event. Athletes are strongly advised to carry their own drinking cup, bottle or hydration vest that they can use at aid stations for the selection of drinks. We recommend you also carry water between aid stations. All race rules and regulations are contained within the below document. Please make sure that you are doing your part as a responsible trail runner and reading and fully understanding all the information contained in the "Race Rules and Regulations"
