Course
An evening trail race on a 9km loop at San Tan Mountain Regional Park, Queen Creek, with staggered starts from 6:30pm so the field runs into the dark. The 54K covers six laps and shorter distances one to three, following the smooth and largely runnable San Tan, Hedgehog and Littleleaf trails with only a few rollers. One aid station sits mid-loop alongside the start/finish hub.
