run (about 6.1 miles). This is a remote trail run and each runner must carry at
least one water bottle. To avoid having to search for lost runners
we ask every runner to find other runners of approximately the same
running ability to form a group. The runners in each group must be
able to account for their partners to make sure nobody is lost. As
usual, there will be a potluck after the run, so please bring food
or drink to share.
