THE COURSE

There are three races: a 25k, 50k, and 50-mile. All races are out and back, traveling along the Ohio Erie Canal Towpath Trail. The Races will start at St. Helena park in Canal Fulton.

The 25k runners will will follow the towpath to the edge of Massillon to their turn around point. The 50k runners will follow the towpath to Navarre for the 50k turn around. The 50-mile runners will travel all the way to Bolivar for their turn around point. Runners will have a total of 14-hours in which to complete the race.

AID STATIONS

Along the way there will be well-supplied Aid Stations at approximately the 5, 10, 15, 22, 25, 28, 35, 40 and 45-mile marks of the race. (See below for specifics of each Aid Station.)
**IMPORTANT INFO** The 25k turn around aid station at mile 7.5 will be taken down after the last runner has reached that point. This will leave approx. 5 miles between the Oak Knoll Park and Crystal Springs aid stations as 50k and 50 milers are on their way back towards the finish line.

DROP BAGS

The 50-mile race will have one drop bag location available for runners at the 25-mile turn around. Aid Station Drop bags can be dropped off before the race in the designated location close to the start line. Drop Bags will be returned to Start/finish after the last runner has turned around from the 25 mile aid station to head back to the finish.

AWARDS

Awards will be given to the Top Overall Winners for both male and female, as well as male and female age group awards for 19 years and under, 20-29,30-39, 40-49, 50-59,60-69, and 70+.

Every runner will also receive a Finisher's Medal as they complete their race.

Cutoff time

As always we like to give ample time for our runners so that everyone has a good chance to finish without worry of not making cutoff times. For Get Lucky 50/50 we are allowing 14 hours for all race distances.
