How it Works

Individual

Home of the the world’s most difficult 10K. Expect double your road time and triple the effort!

The other race distances, 5K, 13.1M, 26.2M, 50K, and 50M are … We might say, “challenging”, so as not to scare you off, but then, we’d be lying! Come join us at the bone and see what you’re made of.

Relay

The relay isn’t your average trail race—it’s pure, trail mayhem in the heart of Indiana! Teams of adventurous souls tackle gnarly trails, splash through creeks, and scramble up hills that might as well be mountains. Whether you're sprinting, stumbling, or just trying not to lose a shoe, it’s all about grit, laughter, and a whole lot of dirt. Bring your wild side, your best team name, and your sense of humor—because this is where trail running meets pure chaos!

All entries include a post-race barbecue bash and brew, marked course with aid, finisher medal and awards eligibility! Overall awards to first male and female in all distances. Age group awards 3 deep in all male/female 5 year age groups for all events! Plus, awesome add-on options!
