What Makes It Great

A demanding 100K covering 63.9 miles and 16,431 feet of climbing through the Topatopa Mountains, starting at 5 PM Friday. The same 42-hour cutoff as the 100-mile gives runners ample time to catch a sunset on Topa Topa Bluffs and a sunrise from Chief Peak — two of the most celebrated views in the Ojai front country. Course shares the festive spirit of the flagship event, with well-stocked aid stations and the same irreverent race culture.
