The routes are all on trail, mostly single track with some sections on two track jeep roads. A map of the course is included in the race operation plan appendix. 100k The 100k will start with a 0.6 mile out-and back to Dripping Springs Road, then head south on the Sierra Vista Trail to the first right turn onto La Maria Loop at mile one.

Regardless of how well the course is marked, people have gotten lost around the jeep roads located between the fence line and Pena Blanca aid stations. Please familiarize yourself with the course map and pay attention to the trail and markings. This area is wide open, so if you get off course, it is easy to look around and see other runners or landmarks and make your way back onto the course. A sweeper will remove markings within 24 hours of the race ending. Let us know if you d like to volunteer to do this. Drop Bags: Drop bags will be allowed for 100k runners at the Vado and Hwy 404 aid stations. Drop bags for 50k runners will be allowed at the Vado aid station. Mark you name, bib number, and AS name on your bag. Drop off your bags at packet pickup or at the start before the race. 100k, 50k, and 21k runner check-in: Please check in at all crewed aid stations both out and back during the race. This is especially important for 100k and 50k runners at Highway 404, Vado, and Pena Blanca. Aid Station Locations: All aid stations will be at existing trailhead parking areas or along existing gravel roads. The aid stations will consist of shade tents, tables, chairs, 1-4 vehicles, trash cans, water, food, and personel. All stations are accessible by vehicle but some require 4x4 and may not have vehicles on site due to the remote nature of the station. These stations will be setup prior to the event and the volunteer staff will access them by bicycle or foot on the day of the event. Some stations may not be staffed but will have water and gels set out prior to the event. 7

12 Cupless Race: In order to reduce waste and cost, the Sierra Vista Trail Runs is a cupless race. This means you have to carry your own water vessel to fill up at aid stations. This can be a bottle or hydration bladder or small cup. There are many options out there. Food and Drink: Each aid station will have adequate food and drink for the runners. Drinks will consist of water and some kind of sports drink (i.e. Gatorade, Nuun, Heed). Food will consist of typical race food. This may include things such as PB&J sandwiches, chips, pretzels, M&Ms, fruit, cookies, wraps, energy gels, granola bars, etc. If you prefer something specific to eat on your run then we suggest you pack it yourself. Food will be provided at the finish line on Saturday and Sunday. The food will either be sold by a local vendor or prepared by race volunteers. 12

13 Support/Other Crews: Runners can have crews at all the aid stations except the Fenceline, Powerline, and Webb Gap stations. These three aid stations are remote and are not easily accessible nor have much parking. Runners are responsible for their crews. Make sure your crew is not hindering the race, aid station operations or creating parking/traffic issues. Your crew will be asked to leave if they are getting in the way and not cooperating with race staff. Parking is limited at the aid stations and NO parking is allowed off of the existing roads and parking areas. Plan accordingly. Drop Bags: Drop bags are allowed for the 100k and 50k runners at the Vado aid station and for the 100k runners at the Hwy 404 aid station. Drop your bags off at the start and we will return them as necessary in the afternoon and night after runners have turned around and passed through the stations. Dropping: We know you are all pretty damn tough if you ve signed up for the Sierra Vista Trail Runs. However, bad days and accidents happen. So, if a runner needs to drop, they can do this at any of the crewed aid stations. Notify an aid station volunteer and/or radio person that you are dropping. A ride will be arranged but this may take a while. Ask people at the aid station about possible rides, but you might have to wait until the station is closed down. If you drop at the more remote Fenceline, Powerline, and Web Gapp aid stations, you might have to wait longer for a ride. Please be aware of your abilities and health during the run. If a volunteer suggests you should drop from the run please consider their advice seriously. We usually don t make good decisions when we are bad off. No one wants anyone to get injured so if you feel you need to drop please do so. Aid station volunteers can pull anyone from the race in the event of a health concern. Cutoffs: 100k, 50k and 21k distance races will end at 2 am on Sunday. This is 20 hrs for the 100k, 19 hours for the 50k, and 18 hours for the 21k. If you have not reached your turnaround aid station in half of this time, then we highly suggest you drop. All runners should be off the trail by 2 am on Sunday. Please use your best judgment when deciding which distance to run and if you should drop at an aid station. We really don't want volunteers to stay out to sunrise waiting for you to crawl in. 13
