SUMMARY:Full Moon 25K & 50K
DESCRIPTION:YOU MUST CARRY A HANDLAMP AND A HYDRATION DEVICE OR YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO RUN. \nTHIS IS A NIGHT TIME RACE. \nCheck in Place: Camp Ouachita for all races. \nTimes: 5pm for 25K and 50k. \nYou’ll pick up your bib\, wristband\, swag at runner check in. You must wear your number in such a place that a reasonable person can see it in the dark – i.e. on the front of your hat\, shirt\, shorts etc. Not on your back\, butt\, backpack\, etc. \nYou may not pick up a packet for another runner during check in. Please stop by after 10 p.m. to do so.  \n50kers: If you want to switch to the 25K at check in\, please let the volunteers know. You will run with your 50K bib number\, but without the 50K wristband. Your start time will be 8 p.m. for the 25K.\n \nPlease wear the numbered wristband on your right hand. This is the hand facing the finish line staff as you blaze across the finish and helps them identify you as a 50K finisher. \n50kers: If you find your fun meter is tapped at the 25K turnaround aid station you are allowed to drop to the 25K race at that point. You will need the Aid Station Captain\, or the Radio Crew Captain\, to cut off your bracelet. Please don’t tear it off and leave it. If you stop at the 25k\, that will be a DNF. You will wait for the sag wagon to pick you up. \nIf you want a different size shirt than what you indicated\, we’ll do our best to exchange them for the desired size after the run. \nDo not come to check-in 5 minutes before your race. This will make Tara the Check-In Queen very angry. You do not want to see Tara Angry. \nRace Start \n50k Race\nThe 50K race starts for all runners at 7 p.m. The Cutoffs are 10:00 for the outbound 25K turnaround aid station; 12 a.m. for the 50K turnaround aid station; and 2:00 a.m. for the inbound 25K turnaround. We are offering a 6 p.m. early start for 50kers that know it will take them over 8 hours to complete the 50k (cutoff is 9 hours***This early start is only for 50K runners that know they will not finish by 4am.) \n25K Race \nThe 25K race starts for all runners at 8 p.m. The Cutoffs is 2:00 a.m. at the 25K turnaround. \nIf you do not make the cutoffs\, you will ride back to Camp O in the sag wagon. Be cool with that. You can race again next year. \nParking  \nCarpool if you can. You must park on the north side of the road (opposite of the race HQ). Please ensure your entire car is parked to the left of the white line on the side of the road. Plan ahead and be prepared to walk to the check-in/start line. There is no parking in the lot at Camp Ouachita; this is for emergency and aid vehicles only\, plus a place for everyone to congregate at the finish safely without fighting tired runners trying to back over them in the dark. Do not block the driveway. Do not pull into the driveway.  \nNo Dogs  \nCamp Ouachita banned dogs from the premises like three years ago. Having dogs at Camp Ouachita could result in our permit being pulled.

SUMMARY:Ozark Enduro Lite Race 2 Lake Atalanta (Rogers\, AR)
DESCRIPTION:Curious about Enduro Mountain Bike Racing? Not sure how an Enduro race works? Let us help you get your feet wet with the Ozark Enduro LITE Series. A short summer series of 3 beginner friendly enduro races. All rider abilities are welcome but the Ozark Enduro Lite Series is aimed at introducing new folks to the awesome sport of Enduro racing. \nEnduro racing is primarily downhill timed segments\, ranging anywhere from just less than a minute per stage to up to 5-6 minutes that may require some pedaling. A typical Ozark Enduro Lite race will consist of 4-6 downhill segments. Your time will start when you enter the top of a segment and will end when you reach the bottom of that segment. There will be connecting routes to transition between each segment that will not be timed. Only the segments are timed. Riders often ride with groups and make new friends while enjoying the trails during the transfers. After completing all the downhill segments\, your total time will be compared with the times of other riders to see how you did. \nYou will be required to have a fully functional bike and a proper helmet. Full face helmets are recommended but not mandatory. Other recommended items are gloves\, eye protection\, knee pads\, elbow pads. We also strongly encourage carrying the necessary items for minor bike repair such as tire plugs\, tubes\, CO2\, spare chain links etc. \nThere will be aid stations\, however\, it is important to carry enough water and nutrition to last throughout the race. Typical durations will be anywhere from 2-4 hours depending on the course and each rider’s ability. \nNone of these races would be possible without volunteers. Volunteer help will be needed at every race\, and we would love to make you a part of our event and give you some cool swag. There will be multiple volunteer opportunities such as helping at an aid station\, course marshaling\, and race setup and tear down. Click HERE to learn more.
