ROOSEVELT FOREST ULTRAS, THE GATEWAY TO CONNECTICUT ULTRAS
You deserve a great "hometown" 100 miler and an incredible buckle! Welcome to the gateway of New England trail running. The 30 Hour/100 mile EPIC event start time Saturday at 8:30 am and run to Sunday ending at 2:30 pm or 30 Hours. Run, Power-Hike/Walk or Crawl. Do as many miles as you wish.
The course will consist an irregular loop of 2.23 miles each loop with a maximum elevation gain of 197 feet. The typical New England course will have of roots, rocks and rolling hills. The course markings will consist of yellow signs with black arrows and smaller tree markings -- no getting lost. Put this "doable" Forbidden 30 hour/100 mile race on you "bucket list" for Connecticut. Run well and you will "Buckle"!
There will be an award for first to fifth overall with the (fastest) most amount of miles in the 30 hours. An incredible buckle will be given at no additional charge to all those achieving 100 miles in the 30 hours; a buckle is assigned by race time achievement of 100 miles.
Note: As you achieve 100 miles you receive your buckle at that point, but that does not win the race; it is most miles achieved in 30 hours. In typical New England fashion the course has roots and rocks and one larger hill (nicknamed: "OMG"), that is very doable. The medallions, buckles and swag and awards are exceptional and worth the trip.
One Pacer is allowed per runner:
