What Makes It Great

A newer addition to the Salt Flats lineup, the 100K threads through a cross-section of all the course's terrain types: salt flats, compacted desert sand, jeep trails, and mountain passes. Runners follow the same opening miles as the longer distances, then branch through the southern reaches of Silver Island via Aid Stations 10, 11, 12, and 13 before finishing back on the flats. With an 18-hour cutoff starting at 7AM Friday, the course runs well into the night.
