| - | 25k (16 miles) all trail. No loops. The 50k option is two loops. One long trail on varying terrain, mostly forest shaded. Everything from rock scrambling uphills to single track downhills, to mountain bike havens and as few fireroads as possible in order to get you back on lovable dirt enlightenment. Elevation gain is estimated at 2000 ft. The trails are very technical and challenging. A great course to hike, run, or both. It's really an adventure and a beautiful park. You won't know you are 8 miles outside Baltimore. 3+ Aid Stations with plenty of water and some food. Course markings and detailed maps are planned to be included. | + | Changes to the course happen yearly. As details are finalized, we will provide updates. |

| Shirts can optionally be purchased when you register online. We are attempting to make the event cheaper for those who do not need a shirt for every race... however, we think that our shirts are unique and high quality (I run test them and only get athletic gear). | Shirts can optionally be purchased when you register online.
