The existence of cut off times can be a sore topic, especially if you are one of the participants confronted with them. You must complete the course within 10 hours to receive a finisher award. During the race, you must maintain a sufficient pace to reach the Braemore Aid Station by 1:00 pm, Renee’s Way Aid Station by 3:00 pm and at the Route 80 Aid Station by 5:00 pm.
On one enjoys having to ask runners to withdraw, unfortunately if you are not able to reach these destinations within the time allowed, you are not going to complete the race within daylight the maximum time allowed. Plus, the volunteers at the aid stations cannot be expected to remain at these locations indefinitely.
If you are asked to withdraw, please respect the request, transport back to the finish will be provided if it is needed.
