The Happy Jack Endurance Race is back June 28 and 29.

All events occur on a challenging 6 mile loop, run almost entirely on forest trails, with approximately 725 feet of elevation gain per loop.

Each loop has access to the lively basecamp, which will serve hot food all night, and the upper fully-stocked aid station located at 8800′.  While this race will prove to be a challenge to everyone, the ample support and frequent access to basecamp will give all levels of runners an excellent chance of reaching their goals.

]In addition, teams will experience the camaraderie and  competition of an all-night race. Beautiful starry nights, wild flowers, beaver ponds, rugged forest – Wyoming!  Located less than 3 hours north of Denver International Airport, the race is easily accessible from many points in the west.   Free camping is available at the starting line Friday and Saturday nights.  (Tents and small campers only, as space is limited.)
