Organiser's description

Romano Racing Co. in partnership with Lions Bear Lake Camp and Bear Lake Ultra Marathon will be hosting a course preview. This is not the race, this is only a preview of the course.



We will meet at 8am at The Shelby Lions Lodge parking lot, inside the Bear Lake Camp Grounds. From here we will walk up to the start/finish of the race. Veterans of the race are able to do as many or as little as they prefer within the allowed time, there will also be someone who will do a much more relaxed and regrouping pace for two loops to make sure that we all understand the course for our first timers. There will be bottled water, coffee and light snacks available at the start and finish of the loop. If you are requiring any special nutrition or fuel, you must provide that yourself. There will be restrooms available for use. The event will end at 11am, this allows three hours of trail time. If you have any questions leading up to the event you can email [email protected] or [email protected].
