"Thanks Nancy - this was only my 2nd trail race (1st was Bulldog). I picked Rocky Peak because I liked Bulldog so much. I'm already looking forward to my next race. Thanks for sparking my love for trail running.

ROCKY PEAK FEATURES
REGISTRATION INFO

DRIVING DIRECTIONS
Please be aware that the Sheriff's are aware of this event and will be monitoring traffic for speeding.
SCHEDULE FOR ENTERING THE PARK - Please do not enter before your time; we need to get the race vehicles and volunteers into the park before the runners.
WEATHER ON RACE DAY
The weather in October can reach the 70s or even 80s and may be windy. One important aspect of training for this race is to be properly heat acclimated. Do your homework and Google "heat training for summer ultra marathons".
COURSE MARKINGS
On race day, the course is marked with surveyor ribbons and arrows on the ground. There is always a possibility that hikers may tamper with course markings and this cannot be controlled. Always keep your eyes alert to your whereabouts. It is unlikely that you will get lost during the race. If you notice you are not seeing arrows or ribbons, simply back-track to the last mark you saw and you will be back on track.
COURSE SWEEPERS
Sweepers will leave Tapo Station at the cut-off time and will stay behind the last participant. Sweepers will pull ribbons and yes, they will actually carry brooms to sweep arrows. Because course marking may be removed behind you, it is important that runners always move forward on the race course, to avoid getting lost. Note to slower runners: Staying with the sweepers does not guarantee that you will make the cut-off times. The sweepers will stay with the last runner regardless of the pace set by the participant so if you want to make the cut-off times, you need to set the pace.
