Headlamps will be required for all runners/walkers and there will be a 1.5 hr cutoff to be finished to be off the trail by 8:30pm. We will have 1 "scare"  station at the cemetery which will be "accessorized" by our lovely friend Michelle AKA Minnie and will have you all ready for the return "climb" back up the service road to the final stretch of flat trail to the finish. This is a cupless race so you will need to carry your own handheld water bottle or hydration pack. This race is presented by Sombrero Running Events and Race Director Mike Martinez whom has only 2 well known " rules" which are: Rule 62 = Don't take yourself too damn seriously as well as his #wontgetlost policy especially in the dark :)  AWARDS: We will have awards for top 3 overall Female and Male, overall Masters ( 40 and above)  and Grandmasters ( 50 and above ) as well as the HIGHLY COVETED Slow A$$ award for DFL for Female and Male.
