Weather & Cutoffs
These are low-traffic trails, so we expect this race to go off rain or shine. In the event of severe weather (highly unlikely in November) we will delay the start as necessary to avoid lightening. If severe weather threatens the entire day and does not appear to let up, we may be forced to cancel. However this is not typical for this area during this time of year.

Average Temperatures: Low: 44F, High: 67F

The cutoff for the 5K is 1hr15min. This works out to be 24:00min /mi pace. The 15K cutoff is 2hr30min or 16:40min/ mi pace. If you cannot maintain 16min pace we ask that you please consider running the 5K. There are cave tours that will start after the race so we must adhere to these strict cutoffs.
