About This Race
The 50K distance extends beyond the 30K route with additional challenging terrain that tests runners' endurance over a more substantial ultra distance. This option suits experienced trail runners ready to tackle their first ultra or those seeking a demanding day-long effort that requires careful pacing and fueling strategies. The extended course demands mental resilience as runners navigate technical sections while managing energy over nearly twice the distance of the shorter option.
The race takes place on 2-mile loops at Norbuck Park in Meriden, Kansas. Each loop must be completed within 30-minute intervals during the timed portion of the race. The course terrain and specific route details are not specified in available data, though the park setting suggests a mix of trails and paths suitable for repeated laps.

Notable Features
The race's innovative format combines timed interval loops with a continuous finale, creating a tactical challenge where runners must balance pacing across multiple race phases. The mandatory 30-minute check-ins add elimination pressure, while rest periods between loops introduce strategic complexity rarely found in traditional ultramarathons.
