RACE DAY INFORMATION

Race Day Tracking

Your time and distance for each completed lap will be recorded automatically using a timing chip on the back of your bib. Please do not bend or fold your bib across the chip as this may alter your results. Up-to-date lap totals will be displayed on a TV screen, and will be broadcast to the race website as often as possible. Invite your friends to watch your progress online during your run.

Please make sure to wear your bib at all times as you run the track. Note that laps will not be recovered by timing if a runner forgets their bib.

Location

Estrella Mountain Regional Park is located in the Southwest area of the Phoenix Metro area set against the backdrop of the Estrella Mountain Range. The course will utilize the newly built 1 mile walking path around the grass turf area in the park surrounded by picnic Ramadas.

The Aid Station tent will be easily accessible right on the course. The timing tent will be just North of the Aid Station with timing mats that you must cross each loop. You can setup your own table, chairs and pop up next to the course for no charge. Camping will be an additional fee due to Maricopa County Park Regulations located approximately 400 feet from the course in an overflow dirt lot.

Awards

Top three male and female performances will be awarded in the 48 hr, 24hr, 12hr, 6hr, 100 Mile, 100K, 50 Mile, & 50K. *Fixed Distance awards/podiums will be celebrated at the conclusion of the fixed distance race.

Parking

There is a $7 per car per day entry fee payable upon arrival at the Maricopa County Parks entry gate. There is ample parking on site adjacent to the venue.

Drop Bags

We will have an area specified for your personal drop bag along the course that will allow for easy and quick access.

Volunteers

We can’t produce our events without our awesome volunteer team. We have a few positions available here.

Course Marking / Lighting

The course will be easy to follow with cones and flagging to ensure you stay on the correct path. Unlike Nardini, there are not lights at this venue, so you will need to bring either a flashlight, headlamp or both to light your way around the course at night.

Camping

We are excited to offer several camping and tent rental options at Fat Ox. Maricopa County Regional Parks does have a nightly camping fee which we will post more details on soon. Camping will be available Friday & Saturday nights.

The camping area opens Friday, (Race Day) at 6:30 AM for camping setup. Campers have the option to set up their tents in a specified area approximately 400 feet from the race course. The park has moved our camping area slightly away from the course.

Tent and cot rentals will be available for your convenience. These will be located at a camping area approximately 400 feet from the course. You may reserve a tent and/or cot when you register.

All rentals will be setup when you arrive. You may check in to receive your tent anytime after 7:00 AM on Friday. Tents will reserved on a first come, first served basis.

Large Tent – $65 – These are 8 feet by 12 feet and are large enough to stand up in (for most people) and may also fit two cot rentals.

Large Tent + 1 Cot – $85

Large Tent + 2 Cots – $105

Restrooms are located on the property and available for use by runners throughout the event.

Rules and Etiquette

Start time are posted above and start promptly on time. If you arrive late for the start of your race you may still compete, but the time you’ve missed is lost and cannot be made up.

A pre-race meeting will take place 5 minutes before each event. At the start, you will begin circling the loop counter clockwise. Thereafter, you will change direction every six hours (at 2:00 PM, 8:00 PM, 2:00 AM, 8:00 AM, etc).

You may leave the course at any time. If and when you decide to continue, you must return to the course at the exact same place you left it, and complete the lap you were on when you stepped off the track, in the same direction as you were going, regardless of the direction other runners are moving when you return. This ensures that you are credited with the correct number of laps.

There are no DNFs in any of the multi-day runs and no drop-downs allowed. The objective in the multi-day runs is only to go as far as you can (or desire) in the allotted time. Of course, the more time you spend moving forward, the more distance you will accumulate.

If you wish to stop completely before the official end of your race, inform the race director or timing personnel, that you are quitting or leaving early and remember to turn in your chip!

An awards ceremony will follow shortly after the conclusion for all events at 8:30 AM on the last morning.

NO CUTTING THE CURVES. You must STAY OUTSIDE the cones or markers on the curves. The Estrella Mountain course is on a paved sidewalk. You may not cut the inside curve of the course, however there are a couple of stretches on the outside of the course that are dirt which you may run on. Nonetheless, if you cut the curves you will be disqualified.

It is your responsibility to know the rules. They exist to provide a good experience for all runners. If you are caught cheating you will be asked to leave and will not be allowed at future Aravaipa Running events.

Course etiquette does not require lone runners to yield the inside lane to runners wanting to pass, regardless of whether the one being passed is running or walking at the time. It is assumed that each participant is there to do his or her best, and has an equal right to pursue personal goals. In a race of this type, it is to be expected that even the best will walk for periods of time, particularly those in the longer races. Always pass others on the outside if they are on the inside lane.

An exception to this policy is the case of two or more persons running or walking together. Persons traveling around the trail in groups should always leave an inside channel open so faster runners do not have to travel far to the outside to get around them.

In all cases, remember to show common courtesy, and that most of us run for the enjoyment and thrill of the experience.

Medical

We will have an onsite EMT for the duration of the 48 hours of the event provided by MedStar Solutions. Please see them for any sort of health related questions or issues during the event.
