About

Set on private trails beside Rhode Island’s Big River Management Area, this last-runner-standing event unfolds on a demanding loop that rewards patience, toughness, and efficient pacing. Each circuit packs a punch with steady climbing and roughly 450 feet of elevation gain, beginning on double-track before diving into winding singletrack that repeatedly crosses back through the broader trail corridor. Underfoot, runners can expect a technical mix of rocks, roots, and low logs on some of the area’s best mountain bike trails, creating a rugged and relentlessly challenging rhythm as the hours wear on. The atmosphere centers on a well-supported base camp where athletes can settle in between loops, regroup, and prepare for the next round. With a stocked aid station and space for personal crew setups, the race has an intimate, gritty feel that blends self-sufficiency with community support. It’s a course built to test durability as much as speed, where the terrain and format combine to make every lap a fresh mental and physical challenge.
