Hey PK tribe,
Start Time Update
I just got word from BRA (Possum Kingdom land management folks) that they do not want us to start the race in the dark (52 milers). I think I just found two more gray hairs.
So…
We have new start times for all race distances…and you will get to sleep in a little longer!
The 52 mile and 55 km runners will now start together at 6:30 am.
The 20 km runners will start at 7:30 am.
BRA also just stated we can keep running on the trails till 8:45 pm. This means the overall race time limit has changed from 14 hours 30 minutes, to 14 hours 15 minutes. Keep moving! Hopefully this will have very little impact but wanted to let you know.
Race course aid station cut-off times have been updated accordingly.
My apologies for this late notice.
====================
More Water
We will add an additional unmanned water-only stop at mile 4.25 (Frontier Unit Road crossing) of each loop.
The first full-service aid station is at mile 6.42 of each loop.
====================
Trail Tikes Fun Run
We will have a free 12-and-under kids fun run that will guide our youth within the Bug Beach area!
Start time: 7:35 am
It will be a .40 mile loop that will be ran once or twice depending on age. Must have parent sign waiver and pick up lucky number 1 bib at packet pick-up.
Parents or adults can run with them if they wish.
age 6-12: two loops
age 5 and under: one loop
——————-
Btw, a race document will come out this weekend or early next week with addition race goodies!
Happy Running!
peace
Dave
