Race Information
Teams of 8 (or 4-member ultra teams) run relay-style on three different single-track loops that start and finish at Ragnar Village in Pocahontas State Park. Teams run day and night until each member has completed all three trail loops.
You and your team of runners go over the river and through woods to Ragnar Village, your home away from home for the long weekend. You’ll set up camp and prepare to conquer a series of three pristine trail loops, relay-style. As each runner sets off, you can expect to catch glimpses of the shimmering lake views of both Beaver Lake and Swift Creek Lake through the deep foliage. As the sun sets, the race doesn’t stop. Runners keep going beneath a canopy of (about) a billion stars overhead and watch the moon rise.
