NOTE: If you are unsure as to if you can do The Beast we are allowing you a 'dignified exit' if you need it at mile 3. This will also serve as the ultimate test of resolve for those who plan on doing the full event. Each racer will have to confront choice between luxury and relaxation or facing 9 more miles of HELL. You are welcome to plan on only doing 3 mile section of course but price remains the same and you will not receive official time or medal.
Mandatory Headlamps - All racers who are still on the course at 5pm will be required to have a headlamp. We expect it will take most people longer than 3 hours to complete this course, some up to 7 hours. If you don’t have a headlamp you will not be able to continue. Please plan accordingly.
Course Closing - Course closes at 8:30pm. Any remaining racers will be pulled from the course then. Time is subject to change.
When: December 8th and December 9th* 2012
Distance: Over 10-12 miles, fastest time should be around 180 minutes. Those who can climb well will be rewarded.
Start Times: Heats start at 8am. Enter the 8am “Competitive ” heat if you want
