There are also right-tu rn\, left-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is desig ned so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees\, except on the out-and-backs to Bunker Hill/Goodwin Loop and Sander s Mound. The trail will be marked with reflectors during the night portion of the 100-mile race. You must have a headlamp or flashlight in order to see these. The Park has also marked the trail with mile markers\, so pleas e pay attention to those also. They are true measured miles and not GPS mi les\, so you will be slightly off on your mileage if you are wearing a GPS . \n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is making y our way on the course. We will do our BEST to mark the course and think li ke a trail runner\, but please familiarize yourself with the course befor ehand. \n\n### Trail Blazes\n\nIn addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners should also watch for the white\, blue and red blazes on the trail s. The westerly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked with **BLUE** blazes. A one-mile detour along the Clinton Lake shoreline will be marked with **RED** blazes. When the course turns back east toward Lands End\, it will be marked with **WHITE** blazes.\n\nIn addition to the white\, blue and red blazes on the westerly\, easterly and shoreline trails\, you may s ee trails marked with both white and blue or red and blue blazes. These ar e “connector trails.” Do not follow them. They will be marked with wro ng-way signs and/or ribbons\, but in case the signs get knocked over or va ndalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white\, blue or red b lazes as shown in the photos.\n\n### Course Description\n\n**100-mile and 50-mile races:** You’ll begin at the Start/Finish and run about an eight h of a mile to the trailhead for the blue-blazed trail. Make a left turn o nto the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yards to the Sand ers Mound trail. You’ll take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out-and-back to the top of Sanders Mound where you will find a bucket of trinkets\, pi ck one each time you run the mound\, you give it to the Lands End aid stat ion captain or if you prefer you hold onto them until the end of the race and give them to the RD. After you descend the Mound you will get back on the blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station.\n\nFrom Land s End you’ll take the Red-blazed shoreline trail until it meets back up with the blue-blazed trail. The blue-blazed trail will turn into the white -blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End at a point known as Cactus Ridge.\n \nThe white-blazed trail will take you to the West Park Road aid station. From there\, leave the trails and follow the signs\, flags and ribbons alo ng West Park Road\, staying on the grass\, to Bunker Hill. This is the Goo dwin Loop. Complete the 2.5-mile Goodwin Loop\, which includes a traverse of Bunker Hill\, and return to the West Park Road aid station. You’ll th en continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End aid station.\n \nLeaving Lands End you will continue on the white-blazed trail back to th e Start/Finish aid station. This completes one loop of the course.\n\n**Ma rathon:** Marathon runners will follow the same course as the 50- and 100- mile runners\, but they will run an additional 1.2 miles at the beginning of the race.\n\n**Big Loop**: At the Start/Finish aid station\, runners wi ll have completed 25 miles (26.2 for marathoners)—what we call the “Bi g Loop.” Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three more times and 50-mile rs one more time.\n\n**When the trails cross**: The white-blazed trail and the blue-blazed trail cross at several points on the course. The crossing s will be heavily marked and signed\, but it is your responsibility to rea d and heed the markers\, signs\, and white\, blue and red blazes to stay o n course.\n\n### Aid Stations\n\nThe Hawk is a fully-staffed race with thr ee aid stations manned by experienced UltraRunners. Aid stations will offe r Tailwind Nutrition\, Water\, Coke\, Mountain Dew and Ginger-ale. We serv e Honey Stinger gels\, chews and waffles and S-caps as our additional elec trolyte.

The heart of the run is a nearly 1-mile section of tall-grass trail known as "Bunker Hill\," offering maje stic views of Clinton Lake and the surrounding countryside. Runners encoun ter this section twice during the run\, and may glimpse the fabled "Sky-Cl intie\," the legendary winged creature of Clinton Lake\, said to have desc ended from prehistoric times. You will definitely see plenty of other like -minded people out for a fantastic spring race. Snacks at the finish\, awa rds for first three male and female finishers\, and cool Skyline Shuffle r unning socks for all entrants. Hope to see you there!\n\nThe race will beg in and end at the southwest corner of Campground Three. This is the same a rea that hosts the West Park Road aid station in the Hawk Hundred\, 50 and 26.2 Mile Trail Races. Parking will be in the grassy field next to the l arge shower/restroom facility on the main road into Campground Three\, but we're still confirming this.\n\nFrom the start\, the course proceeds up B unker Hill and heads east along the ridge\, descending across a dirt road\ , and heading past the "honey ponds" into an expanded version of the woode d Goodwin Loop. The additional section includes a shallow water crossing. You will likely cross with dry feet. Emerging from this section\, runners once again climb and traverse Bunker Hill\, and return to the start/finish .\n\nThis is a challenging\, scenic course that lives up to the race monik er "Short enough for beginners\; hard enough for veterans." Because of the wonderful views of lake\, park and sky from the top of Bunker Hill\, the race is named "The Skyline Shuffle." Sign up at [ultrasignup.com](https:// ultrasignup.com/results_event.aspx?did=76498) if you haven't already\, and holler at Race Directors Josh or Matt with any questions.\n\nThanks for your interest and we hope to see you there!\n\nJosh McVey and Matt O'Reill y\, race directors\n\nDirections:\nUpon entering the Clinton State Park La wrence\, KS you will need a sticker for the day if you do not have a yearl y pass. Stop at the Kiosk to obtain this. If you arrive prior to the kio sk opening\, there is a self-pay station at campground 3 to obtain the par king permit. All vehicles must have this permit.\n\nProceed West on the m ain park road to Campground 3. Make a left turn and take the immediate ri ght to the parking area and race check-in. A volunteer will assist with p arking. No parking is allowed next to the main park road.\n\nThere is a l arge bathroom facility with showers at this campground and a restroom 500 feet from the finish line.\n\n![](https://www.evernote.com/shard/s27/sh/18 be5f6b-46ce-427e-8afb-dda39ec0605d/536b4405ebd3196f8b5cb446ea5ec70f/deep/0 /ShorelineShuffleInfo2015---Google-Docs.png)\n\n\n**PREDICTION RUN:**\n\nN ot in the running for a first-place finish? Not a problem! As we did last year\, we will be giving out a “Time Prediction” award. This is an opt ional completion to see not who can run the fastest\, but who has the most precision pacing prowess. Guess your time for the race and let me know by May 5th. Whoever runs closest to their predicted time wins! Interested? H ere are the details:\n\n1) Anyone registered online for the Skyline Shuffl e\, or anyone who registers at packet pickup may choose to go for the pred iction award. There’s no extra cost and nothing special you need to do d uring registration.\n\n2) Email me (or tell me at packet pickup) your pred iction for what time you will run the Skyline Shuffle in. I need to have t he times in by May 5th-race day is too chaotic to be collecting prediction s!\n\n3) (Here’s the important one)-if you are going for the prediction run\, you cannot run with a watch or electronic device capable of keeping track of time! After all\, it’s not much of a feat of precision pacing p rowess if your Garmin is keeping track for you. (Remember-the time predict ion is optional if you want to run the race with your phone/mp3 player/GPS /microwave\, we’d love to have you\, and you’re still eligible for the top three fastest men/women awards).\n\n4) We’ll have the timer set up in a way so runners can see it as they cross the finish\, but not sooner. (Hopefully. I need to think about how that’ll work.)\n\n5) Whoever guess es closest to their actual time wins the prediction award. If two runners tie (e.g.\, two people each manage to be\, say\, three seconds off their p redictions)\, the award will go to whoever was closest on a percentage bas is (that is\, the slower runner).

There are also right-tu rn\, left-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is desig ned so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees\, except on the out-and-backs to Bunker Hill/Goodwin Loop and Sander s Mound. The trail will be marked with reflectors during the night portion of the 100-mile race. You must have a headlamp or flashlight in order to see these. The Park has also marked the trail with mile markers\, so pleas e pay attention to those also. They are true measured miles and not GPS mi les\, so you will be slightly off on your mileage if you are wearing a GPS . \n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is making y our way on the course. We will do our BEST to mark the course and think li ke a trail runner\, but please familiarize yourself with the course befor ehand. \n\n### Trail Blazes\n\nIn addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners should also watch for the white\, blue and red blazes on the trail s. The westerly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked with **BLUE** blazes. A one-mile detour along the Clinton Lake shoreline will be marked with **RED** blazes. When the course turns back east toward Lands End\, it will be marked with **WHITE** blazes.\n\nIn addition to the white\, blue and red blazes on the westerly\, easterly and shoreline trails\, you may s ee trails marked with both white and blue or red and blue blazes. These ar e “connector trails.” Do not follow them. They will be marked with wro ng-way signs and/or ribbons\, but in case the signs get knocked over or va ndalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white\, blue or red b lazes as shown in the photos.\n\n### Course Description\n\n**100-mile and 50-mile races:** You’ll begin at the Start/Finish and run about an eight h of a mile to the trailhead for the blue-blazed trail. Make a left turn o nto the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yards to the Sand ers Mound trail. You’ll take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out-and-back to the top of Sanders Mound where you will find a bucket of trinkets\, pi ck one each time you run the mound\, you give it to the Lands End aid stat ion captain or if you prefer you hold onto them until the end of the race and give them to the RD. After you descend the Mound you will get back on the blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station.\n\nFrom Land s End you’ll take the Red-blazed shoreline trail until it meets back up with the blue-blazed trail. The blue-blazed trail will turn into the white -blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End at a point known as Cactus Ridge.\n \nThe white-blazed trail will take you to the West Park Road aid station. From there\, leave the trails and follow the signs\, flags and ribbons alo ng West Park Road\, staying on the grass\, to Bunker Hill. This is the Goo dwin Loop. Complete the 2.5-mile Goodwin Loop\, which includes a traverse of Bunker Hill\, and return to the West Park Road aid station. You’ll th en continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End aid station.\n \nLeaving Lands End you will continue on the white-blazed trail back to th e Start/Finish aid station. This completes one loop of the course.\n\n**Ma rathon:** Marathon runners will follow the same course as the 50- and 100- mile runners\, but they will run an additional 1.2 miles at the beginning of the race.\n\n**Big Loop**: At the Start/Finish aid station\, runners wi ll have completed 25 miles (26.2 for marathoners)—what we call the “Bi g Loop.” Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three more times and 50-mile rs one more time.\n\n**When the trails cross**: The white-blazed trail and the blue-blazed trail cross at several points on the course. The crossing s will be heavily marked and signed\, but it is your responsibility to rea d and heed the markers\, signs\, and white\, blue and red blazes to stay o n course.\n\n### Aid Stations\n\nThe Hawk is a fully-staffed race with thr ee aid stations manned by experienced UltraRunners.

They will be marked with wrong-way signs and/or ribbons \, but in case the signs get knocked over or vandalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white or blue blazes.\n\n### PLEASE HELP KEEP TH E TRAILS AND PARK CLEAN\n\nRunners in all the Lawrence Trail Hawks races h ave been notable for not littering. Please help us continue the great trad ition of running a clean race\, and don’t leave trash on our beautiful t rails.\n\n### LEAVING THE RACE\n\nSeeing you finish is the reason we’re putting on this race. If for some reason that’s not possible\, you MUST report to the Start/Finish\, which will be staffed throughout the race. Yo u can also call one of the Race Directors listed below:\n\n### DIRECTIONS TO THE RACE\n\nYour best bet is to use Google Maps to chart your route. Us e this coordinate for the destination. It puts you right at the Start/Fini sh: Overlook Park @38.939175\,-95.339651.\n\nIf you’re traveling to the race on I-70\, get off at Exit 197 toward Lecompton/Lawrence and head sout h for about four miles on Highway K-10/South Lawrence Trafficway. You’ll see a sign for Clinton Lake. Take the Clinton Pkwy exit. At the bottom of the ramp\, turn right onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign ont o E 900 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow t he road to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\nIf you’re traveling from the south on Hwy 59\, exit on the left onto K-10/South Law rence Trafficway right before you enter Lawrence. Take the Clinton Pkwy ex it and turn left onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign onto E 90 0 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park.

As the RD ’s of the race\, our first and foremost concern is the safety of the run ners\, volunteers\, and everyone involved in the race. Our second concern is that we do not damage the trails or the park. With that being said\, pl ease know we will be watching the weather and if there are any concerns\, we will make updates. We may delay the start of the race\, use an alternat e course that runs on the roads through the state park\, or lastly\, postp one the race for another date. Postponing a race is very costly and not pr eferred\, and canceling a race is just not an option due to the amount of money and time our runners put into the preparation of a race.\n\n### NO L ITTERING!\n\nWe take littering very seriously and reserve the right to dis qualify anyone who does so.\n\nHave fun\, be kind and courteous to each ot her\, respect all animals and nature\, and leave no trace behind.\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2020/aug/02/the-night-hawk-6/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Fifth Annual The Snake DTSTART:20200713T120000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2020/jul/13/the-snake-5/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:SNAKE!!\nThe 4th annual Snake 10-Mile Trail Race takes its nam e from the winding nature of the course\, set amid the rugged trails and o ld-growth forest of the north shore of Clinton Lake\, Lawrence\, Kan.

The heart of the run is a nearly 1-mile section of tall-grass trail known as "Bunker Hill\," offering maje stic views of Clinton Lake and the surrounding countryside. Runners encoun ter this section twice during the run\, and may glimpse the fabled "Sky-Cl intie\," the legendary winged creature of Clinton Lake\, said to have desc ended from prehistoric times. You will definitely see plenty of other like -minded people out for a fantastic spring race. Snacks at the finish\, awa rds for first three male and female finishers\, and cool Skyline Shuffle r unning socks for all entrants. Hope to see you there!\n\nThe race will beg in and end at the southwest corner of Campground Three. This is the same a rea that hosts the West Park Road aid station in the Hawk Hundred\, 50 and 26.2 Mile Trail Races. Parking will be in the grassy field next to the l arge shower/restroom facility on the main road into Campground Three\, but we're still confirming this.\n\nFrom the start\, the course proceeds up B unker Hill and heads east along the ridge\, descending across a dirt road\ , and heading past the "honey ponds" into an expanded version of the woode d Goodwin Loop. The additional section includes a shallow water crossing. You will likely cross with dry feet. Emerging from this section\, runners once again climb and traverse Bunker Hill\, and return to the start/finish .\n\nThis is a challenging\, scenic course that lives up to the race monik er "Short enough for beginners\; hard enough for veterans." Because of the wonderful views of lake\, park and sky from the top of Bunker Hill\, the race is named "The Skyline Shuffle." Sign up at [ultrasignup.com](https:// ultrasignup.com/results_event.aspx?did=76498) if you haven't already\, and holler at Race Directors Josh or Matt with any questions.\n\nThanks for your interest and we hope to see you there!\n\nJosh McVey and Matt O'Reill y\, race directors\n\nDirections:\nUpon entering the Clinton State Park La wrence\, KS you will need a sticker for the day if you do not have a yearl y pass. Stop at the Kiosk to obtain this. If you arrive prior to the kio sk opening\, there is a self-pay station at campground 3 to obtain the par king permit. All vehicles must have this permit.\n\nProceed West on the m ain park road to Campground 3. Make a left turn and take the immediate ri ght to the parking area and race check-in. A volunteer will assist with p arking. No parking is allowed next to the main park road.\n\nThere is a l arge bathroom facility with showers at this campground and a restroom 500 feet from the finish line.\n\n![](https://www.evernote.com/shard/s27/sh/18 be5f6b-46ce-427e-8afb-dda39ec0605d/536b4405ebd3196f8b5cb446ea5ec70f/deep/0 /ShorelineShuffleInfo2015---Google-Docs.png)\n\n\n**PREDICTION RUN:**\n\nN ot in the running for a first-place finish? Not a problem! As we did last year\, we will be giving out a “Time Prediction” award. This is an opt ional completion to see not who can run the fastest\, but who has the most precision pacing prowess. Guess your time for the race and let me know by May 5th. Whoever runs closest to their predicted time wins! Interested? H ere are the details:\n\n1) Anyone registered online for the Skyline Shuffl e\, or anyone who registers at packet pickup may choose to go for the pred iction award. There’s no extra cost and nothing special you need to do d uring registration.\n\n2) Email me (or tell me at packet pickup) your pred iction for what time you will run the Skyline Shuffle in. I need to have t he times in by May 5th-race day is too chaotic to be collecting prediction s!\n\n3) (Here’s the important one)-if you are going for the prediction run\, you cannot run with a watch or electronic device capable of keeping track of time! After all\, it’s not much of a feat of precision pacing p rowess if your Garmin is keeping track for you. (Remember-the time predict ion is optional if you want to run the race with your phone/mp3 player/GPS /microwave\, we’d love to have you\, and you’re still eligible for the top three fastest men/women awards).\n\n4) We’ll have the timer set up in a way so runners can see it as they cross the finish\, but not sooner. (Hopefully. I need to think about how that’ll work.)\n\n5) Whoever guess es closest to their actual time wins the prediction award. If two runners tie (e.g.\, two people each manage to be\, say\, three seconds off their p redictions)\, the award will go to whoever was closest on a percentage bas is (that is\, the slower runner).

There are also right-tu rn\, left-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is desig ned so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees\, except on the out-and-backs to Bunker Hill/Goodwin Loop and Sander s Mound. The trail will be marked with reflectors during the night portion of the 100-mile race. You must have a headlamp or flashlight in order to see these. The Park has also marked the trail with mile markers\, so pleas e pay attention to those also. They are true measured miles and not GPS mi les\, so you will be slightly off on your mileage if you are wearing a GPS . \n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is making y our way on the course. We will do our BEST to mark the course and think li ke a trail runner\, but please familiarize yourself with the course befor ehand. \n\n### Trail Blazes\n\nIn addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners should also watch for the white\, blue and red blazes on the trail s. The westerly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked with **BLUE** blazes. A one-mile detour along the Clinton Lake shoreline will be marked with **RED** blazes. When the course turns back east toward Lands End\, it will be marked with **WHITE** blazes.\n\nIn addition to the white\, blue and red blazes on the westerly\, easterly and shoreline trails\, you may s ee trails marked with both white and blue or red and blue blazes. These ar e “connector trails.” Do not follow them. They will be marked with wro ng-way signs and/or ribbons\, but in case the signs get knocked over or va ndalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white\, blue or red b lazes as shown in the photos.\n\n### Course Description\n\n**100-mile and 50-mile races:** You’ll begin at the Start/Finish and run about an eight h of a mile to the trailhead for the blue-blazed trail. Make a left turn o nto the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yards to the Sand ers Mound trail. You’ll take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out-and-back to the top of Sanders Mound where you will find a bucket of trinkets\, pi ck one each time you run the mound\, you give it to the Lands End aid stat ion captain or if you prefer you hold onto them until the end of the race and give them to the RD. After you descend the Mound you will get back on the blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station.\n\nFrom Land s End you’ll take the Red-blazed shoreline trail until it meets back up with the blue-blazed trail. The blue-blazed trail will turn into the white -blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End at a point known as Cactus Ridge.\n \nThe white-blazed trail will take you to the West Park Road aid station. From there\, leave the trails and follow the signs\, flags and ribbons alo ng West Park Road\, staying on the grass\, to Bunker Hill. This is the Goo dwin Loop. Complete the 2.5-mile Goodwin Loop\, which includes a traverse of Bunker Hill\, and return to the West Park Road aid station. You’ll th en continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End aid station.\n \nLeaving Lands End you will continue on the white-blazed trail back to th e Start/Finish aid station. This completes one loop of the course.\n\n**Ma rathon:** Marathon runners will follow the same course as the 50- and 100- mile runners\, but they will run an additional 1.2 miles at the beginning of the race.\n\n**Big Loop**: At the Start/Finish aid station\, runners wi ll have completed 25 miles (26.2 for marathoners)—what we call the “Bi g Loop.” Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three more times and 50-mile rs one more time.\n\n**When the trails cross**: The white-blazed trail and the blue-blazed trail cross at several points on the course. The crossing s will be heavily marked and signed\, but it is your responsibility to rea d and heed the markers\, signs\, and white\, blue and red blazes to stay o n course.\n\n### Aid Stations\n\nThe 2019 Hawk is a fully-staffed race wit h three aid stations manned by experienced UltraRunners. Aid stations will offer Tailwind Nutrition\, Water\, Coke\, Mountain Dew and Ginger-ale. We serve Honey Stinger gels\, chews and waffles and S-caps as our additional electrolyte.

These are “connector trails.” D o not follow them. They will be marked with wrong-way signs and/or ribbons \, but in case the signs get knocked over or vandalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white or blue blazes.\n\n### PLEASE HELP KEEP TH E TRAILS AND PARK CLEAN\n\nRunners in all the Lawrence Trail Hawks races h ave been notable for not littering. Please help us continue the great trad ition of running a clean race\, and don’t leave trash on our beautiful t rails.\n\n### LEAVING THE RACE\n\nSeeing you finish is the reason we’re putting on this race. If for some reason that’s not possible\, you MUST report to the Start/Finish\, which will be staffed throughout the race. Yo u can also call one of the Race Directors listed below:\n\n### DIRECTIONS TO THE RACE\n\nYour best bet is to use Google Maps to chart your route. Us e this coordinate for the destination. It puts you right at the Start/Fini sh: Overlook Park @38.939175\,-95.339651.\n\nIf you’re traveling to the race on I-70\, get off at Exit 197 toward Lecompton/Lawrence and head sout h for about four miles on Highway K-10/South Lawrence Trafficway. You’ll see a sign for Clinton Lake. Take the Clinton Pkwy exit. At the bottom of the ramp\, turn right onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign ont o E 900 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow t he road to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\nIf you’re traveling from the south on Hwy 59\, exit on the left onto K-10/South Law rence Trafficway right before you enter Lawrence. Take the Clinton Pkwy ex it and turn left onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign onto E 90 0 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow the roa d to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\n### PARK ENTRY FE ES\n\nThe Night Hawk starts and finishes at Shelter 1\, Army Corps of Engi neers Overlook Park at Clinton Lake. There is no entry fee for Overlook Pa rk or for running on the trails\, but in order to enter the state park by vehicle\, you must buy either a day pass for $5 or an annual entry permit for $25. Camping and cabin rentals are available in the state park. The st ated prices are taken from the Department’s website at http://kdwp.state .ks.us/news/License-Permits and may be subject to change.\n\n### INCLEMENT WEATHER\n\nWe will do our very best to make this race happen as described and promised\, however due to the lovely Kansas weather\, we want to addr ess a few issues regarding the possibility of inclement weather. As the RD ’s of the race\, our first and foremost concern is the safety of the run ners\, volunteers\, and everyone involved in the race. Our second concern is that we do not damage the trails or the park. With that being said\, pl ease know we will be watching the weather and if there are any concerns\, we will make updates. We may delay the start of the race\, use an alternat e course that runs on the roads through the state park\, or lastly\, postp one the race for another date. Postponing a race is very costly and not pr eferred\, and canceling a race is just not an option due to the amount of money and time our runners put into the preparation of a race.\n\n### NO L ITTERING!\n\nWe take littering very seriously and reserve the right to dis qualify anyone who does so.\n\nHave fun\, be kind and courteous to each ot her\, respect all animals and nature\, and leave no trace behind.\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2019/jun/30/the-night-hawk-5/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Fifth Annual Skyline Shuffle DTSTART:20190505T130000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2019/may/05/skyline-shuffle-5/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Tough enough for veterans\; short enough for beginners\, the S kyline Shuffle 5K Trail Run is a rugged romp up grassy slopes and through the woodlands of Clinton Lake State Park. The heart of the run is a nearly 1-mile section of tall-grass trail known as "Bunker Hill\," offering maje stic views of Clinton Lake and the surrounding countryside. Runners encoun ter this section twice during the run\, and may glimpse the fabled "Sky-Cl intie\," the legendary winged creature of Clinton Lake\, said to have desc ended from prehistoric times. You will definitely see plenty of other like -minded people out for a fantastic spring race. Snacks at the finish\, awa rds for first three male and female finishers\, and cool Skyline Shuffle r unning socks for all entrants. Hope to see you there!\n\nThe race will beg in and end at the southwest corner of Campground Three. This is the same a rea that hosts the West Park Road aid station in the Hawk Hundred\, 50 and 26.2 Mile Trail Races. Parking will be in the grassy field next to the l arge shower/restroom facility on the main road into Campground Three\, but we're still confirming this.\n\nFrom the start\, the course proceeds up B unker Hill and heads east along the ridge\, descending across a dirt road\ , and heading past the "honey ponds" into an expanded version of the woode d Goodwin Loop. The additional section includes a shallow water crossing. You will likely cross with dry feet. Emerging from this section\, runners once again climb and traverse Bunker Hill\, and return to the start/finish .\n\nThis is a challenging\, scenic course that lives up to the race monik er "Short enough for beginners\; hard enough for veterans." Because of the wonderful views of lake\, park and sky from the top of Bunker Hill\, the race is named "The Skyline Shuffle." Sign up at [ultrasignup.com](https:// ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=44706) if you haven't already\, and holl er at Race Directors Josh or Matt with any questions.\n\nThanks for your interest and we hope to see you there!\n\nJosh McVey and Matt O'Reilly\, r ace directors\n\nDirections:\nUpon entering the Clinton State Park Lawrenc e\, KS you will need a sticker for the day if you do not have a yearly pas s. Stop at the Kiosk to obtain this. If you arrive prior to the kiosk op ening\, there is a self-pay station at campground 3 to obtain the parking permit. All vehicles must have this permit.\n\nProceed West on the main p ark road to Campground 3. Make a left turn and take the immediate right t o the parking area and race check-in. A volunteer will assist with parkin g. No parking is allowed next to the main park road.\n\nThere is a large bathroom facility with showers at this campground and a restroom 500 feet from the finish line.\n\n![](https://www.evernote.com/shard/s27/sh/18be5f6 b-46ce-427e-8afb-dda39ec0605d/536b4405ebd3196f8b5cb446ea5ec70f/deep/0/Shor elineShuffleInfo2015---Google-Docs.png)\n\n\n**PREDICTION RUN:**\n\nNot in the running for a first-place finish? Not a problem! As we did last year\ , we will be giving out a “Time Prediction” award. This is an optional completion to see not who can run the fastest\, but who has the most prec ision pacing prowess. Guess your time for the race and let me know by May 5th. Whoever runs closest to their predicted time wins! Interested? Here a re the details:\n\n1) Anyone registered online for the Skyline Shuffle\, o r anyone who registers at packet pickup may choose to go for the predictio n award. There’s no extra cost and nothing special you need to do during registration.\n\n2) Email me (or tell me at packet pickup) your predictio n for what time you will run the Skyline Shuffle in. I need to have the ti mes in by May 5th-race day is too chaotic to be collecting predictions!\n\ n3) (Here’s the important one)-if you are going for the prediction run\, you cannot run with a watch or electronic device capable of keeping track of time! After all\, it’s not much of a feat of precision pacing prowes s if your Garmin is keeping track for you. (Remember-the time prediction i s optional if you want to run the race with your phone/mp3 player/GPS/micr owave\, we’d love to have you\, and you’re still eligible for the top three fastest men/women awards).\n\n4) We’ll have the timer set up in a way so runners can see it as they cross the finish\, but not sooner. (Hope fully. I need to think about how that’ll work.)\n\n5) Whoever guesses cl osest to their actual time wins the prediction award. If two runners tie ( e.g.\, two people each manage to be\, say\, three seconds off their predic tions)\, the award will go to whoever was closest on a percentage basis (t hat is\, the slower runner).\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2019/may/05/skyline-shuffle-5/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Ninth Annual Pi Day River Rotation - Marathon\, Half Marathon and Pi Miler DTSTART:20190309T133000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2019/mar/09/pi-day-9/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Trail run on a smooth\, fast course with a few hills sprinkled in for fun. \n\nThe Pi Miler\, starting at 7:30 am\, is 2 loops of differ ent distances\, totaling 3.14 miles (just over a 5K).\n\nThe River Rotatio n Half Marathon\, starting at 9 am\, is a 13.14 mile three-loop course\, a lternating between counterclockwise and clockwise directions. \n\nThe Pi D ay River Rotation Full Marathon is back for its second year!

Because we love fatass running and we love food and we l ove each other (most of the time). This is a laid back event but also pro vides a great opportunity for some serious training. The run starts at 2: 30pm on Saturday afternoon and runs through 12:30pm on Sunday afternoon. You are welcome to come run some on Saturday\, leave\, and come back and r un some more on Sunday. Or\, if you choose\, you can run the whole time o r just through the night. For anyone needing some mental toughness traini ng\, this is a great opportunity as running trails in the dark can be chal lenging. You can also just come hang out in the cabin for a bit and take part in some Hawk naming ceremonies and some good eats.\n\nWe are half ass rece directors and we will half ass mark the course. However\, your safe ty is important to us so we will make sure you know the course or we will provide some run leaders for a loop or two. We will have a waiver for you to sign and a method to track your loops so we know who’s out on the co urse. The course will begin with a loop from Land’s End on blue to swim beach and back on white (5ish mile loop). At 12:30am the course will cha nge and run from Land’s End on blue to Lake Henry and back on white (5is h mile loop). There are plenty of opportunities to loop back for a shorte r distance should you so desire. This will\, of course\, depend a lot on weather and trail conditions. An alternate course will be decided should the trails be too muddy to run. We are hoping for snow and cool temps\, unlike the real birthday run in August. BTW\, your RD’s for this event are #teamwinter members.\n\nWe will be providing some snacks and beverages \, but you are encouraged to bring something yummy to share as well (not r equired). We will be collecting money for donation to KTC (Kansas Trail C ouncil). We are also planning a friendly little food competition. Details will be provided shortly. In fact\, we will be posting updates over the next few weeks leading up to the inaugural event.

There are also right-turn \, left-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is designe d so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the tr ees\, except on the out-and-backs to Bunker Hill/Goodwin Loop and Sanders Mound. The trail will be marked with reflectors during the night portion o f the 100-mile race. You must have a headlamp or flashlight in order to se e these. The Park has also marked the trail with mile markers\, so please pay attention to those also. They are true measured miles and not GPS mile s\, so you will be slightly off on your mileage if you are wearing a GPS. \n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is making you r way on the course. We will do our BEST to mark the course and think like a trail runner\, but please familiarize yourself with the course beforeh and. \n\n### Trail Blazes\n\nIn addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, ru nners should also watch for the white\, blue and red blazes on the trails. The westerly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked with **BLUE** bl azes. A one-mile detour along the Clinton Lake shoreline will be marked wi th **RED** blazes. When the course turns back east toward Lands End\, it w ill be marked with **WHITE** blazes.\n\nIn addition to the white\, blue an d red blazes on the westerly\, easterly and shoreline trails\, you may see trails marked with both white and blue or red and blue blazes. These are “connector trails.” Do not follow them. They will be marked with wrong -way signs and/or ribbons\, but in case the signs get knocked over or vand alized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white\, blue or red bla zes as shown in the photos.\n\n### Course Description\n\n**100-mile and 50 -mile races:** You’ll begin at the Start/Finish and run about an eighth of a mile to the trail head for the blue-blazed trail. Make a left turn on to the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yards to the Sande rs Mound trail. You’ll take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out-and-back to the top of Sanders Mound where you will find a bucket of trinkets\, pic k one each time you run the mound\, you give it to the Lands End aid stati on captain or if you prefer you hold onto them until the end of the race a nd give them to the RD. After you descend the Mound you will get back on t he blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station.\n\nFrom Lands End you’ll take the Red-blazed shoreline trail until it meets back up w ith the blue-blazed trail. The blue-blazed trail will turn into the white- blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End at a point known as Cactus Ridge.\n\ nThe white-blazed trail will take you to the West Park Road aid station. F rom there\, leave the trails and follow the signs\, flags and ribbons alon g West Park Road\, staying on the grass\, to Bunker Hill. This is the Good win Loop. Complete the 2.5-mile Goodwin Loop\, which includes a traverse o f Bunker Hill\, and return to the West Park Road aid station. You’ll the n continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End aid station.\n\ nLeaving Lands End you will continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Start/Finish aid station. This completes one loop of the course.\n\n**Mar athon:** Marathon runners will follow the same course as the 50- and 100-m ile runners\, but they will run an additional 1.2 miles at the beginning o f the race.\n\n**Big Loop**: At the Start/Finish aid station\, runners wil l have completed 25 miles (26.2 for marathoners)—what we call the “Big Loop.” Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three more times and 50-miler s one more time.\n\n**When the trails cross**: The white-blazed trail and the blue-blazed trail cross at several points on the course. The crossings will be heavily marked and signed\, but it is your responsibility to read and heed the markers\, signs\, and white\, blue and red blazes to stay on course.\n\n### Aid Stations\n\nThe 2018 Hawk is a fully-staffed race with three aid stations manned by experienced UltraRunners. Aid stations will offer Tailwind Nutrition\, Water\, Coke\, Mountain Dew and Ginger-ale. We serve Honey Stinger gels\, chews and waffles and S-caps as our additional electrolyte.

If you have a "special needs diet\," please contact the RD and we will do ou r best to accommodate you at the Start/Finish aid station. Following are t he locations and distances runners will hit aid stations as they traverse the 25-mile course (26.2 for marathoners).\n\n- Lands End: 4.5 miles – n o crew access\, drop bags\n- West Park Road: 10.5 and 13 miles – crew ac cess\, drop bags\n- Lands End: 18.5 miles – no crew access\, drop bags\n - Start/Finish: 25 miles – crew access\, drop bags\n\n### CUT OFFS \n\nA ID STATION - CUT OFFS\n\nThe 100 and 50-mile races have a Sunday 10:00am c ut off for runners leaving the West Park Road aid station\, after completi ng the Bunker Hill/Goodwin loop. This is at mile 88 for the 100-mile runne rs and mile 38 for the 50-mile runners. \n\nThe cut off for Lands End aid station is Sunday 12pm\, noon.

This race takes its name from the winding natur e of the course\, set amid the rugged trails and old-growth forest of the north shore of Clinton Lake\, Lawrence\, Kan. The Snake traverses the conn ector trails between the north shore's blue- and white-blazed trail system s out about 5 miles and back again. The unique course layout promises to p rovide a new experience to even the seasoned Clinton Lake veteran! The Sna ke features a midway aid station staffed by fellow trail runners and a pos t-race watermelon feast for runners\, volunteers\, families and friends.

We request all ru nners be checked in by 7:45 pm at which time we will have the pre-race bri efing. The race will begin at 8:00 pm. Drop bags need to be brought to the allotted area by 7:45 pm. They will be loaded and taken to the aide stati on and/or left in a designated area at the start/finish line aide station\ , whichever you prefer. They will be brought back to the start/finish line at the completion of the race\, or you may go get them if you prefer.\n\n It is required that all runners carry a water battle or hydration pack for your race. You will also need a headlamp. There is a cut off time of 10 h ours.\n\nWe love dogs\, and if you let us know ahead of time we’ll even get your pup a race bib. However\, as a courtesy to other runners\, your d og must remain on a leash for the duration of the race. If the alternate c ourse is used\, we prefer no dogs running with the runners.\n\n### COURSE DESCRIPTION\n\nThis 50K course consists of mostly rugged trails running th rough the beautiful trees\, out on the white trail to Land's End (~6 1/2 m iles) and returning to the Start/Finish line on the blue trail(~3 1/2 mile s). This is a 3 loop course with each loop running 10.3 miles long.\n\nAid e stations are located at Land's End and the Start/Finish Line and will ha ve water\, sports drink\, gels\, fruit\, and sweet and salty snacks.\n\nAl ternate Course will be approximately 70% asphalt paved roads and 30% cross country type running. We apologize for the pavement but we must preserve the trails so they will be runnable again soon and hopefully we will be on the regularly scheduled course next year. The alternate course will be we ll marked and staffed to keep you on course.\n\nFirst Aide Station is loca ted at about 5 miles into the loop\, at the intersection of 1415 Rd and 70 0 Road. It is located prior to entering the Loop of Ultimate Darkness cros s country section. You will see it on your way out and you will pass by it again on your back to the start/finish line aid station. There are only 2 aide stations due to the looping course.\n\nThe start/finish line will ha ve some good grub available for a post-race refueling. We will have regula r\, vegan\, vegetarian and gluten free options.\n\n### COURSE MARKERS\n\nT he course is marked with flags and ribbons. There are also right-turn\, le ft-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is designed so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees. The trail will be marked with reflectors and you must have a headlamp or f lashlight in order to see these.\n\nAlternate Course will be well marked a nd we will have course monitors out there to keep you going in the right d irection.\n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is m aking your way on the course. We will do our BEST to make it easy for you to stay on course. That said\, wind\, animals\, vandals or your own blurry vision may cause you to miss a marker or a turn\, so please pay attention .\n\n### TRAIL BLAZES (Not applicable when using the Alternate course)\n\n In addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners should also watch for t he white and blue blazes on the trails. The westerly\, out-bound portion o f the course is marked with white blazes. At the Land’s End Aide Station \, you will be directed to the blue trail where you will follow blue blaze s back to the start/finish line aide station.\n\nIn addition to the white and blue blazes on the westerly and easterly trails\, you may see trails m arked with both white and blue blazes. These are “connector trails.” D o not follow them. They will be marked with wrong-way signs and/or ribbons \, but in case the signs get knocked over or vandalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white or blue blazes.\n\n### PLEASE HELP KEEP TH E TRAILS AND PARK CLEAN\n\nRunners in all the Lawrence Trail Hawks races h ave been notable for not littering. Please help us continue the great trad ition of running a clean race\, and don’t leave trash on our beautiful t rails.\n\n### LEAVING THE RACE\n\nSeeing you finish is the reason we’re putting on this race. If for some reason that’s not possible\, you MUST report to the Start/Finish\, which will be staffed throughout the race. Yo u can also call one of the Race Directors listed below:\n\n### DIRECTIONS TO THE RACE\n\nYour best bet is to use Google Maps to chart your route. Us e this coordinate for the destination. It puts you right at the Start/Fini sh: Overlook Park @38.939175\,-95.339651.\n\nIf you’re traveling to the race on I-70\, get off at Exit 197 toward Lecompton/Lawrence and head sout h for about four miles on Highway K-10/South Lawrence Trafficway. You’ll see a sign for Clinton Lake. Take the Clinton Pkwy exit. At the bottom of the ramp\, turn right onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign ont o E 900 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow t he road to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\nIf you’re traveling from the south on Hwy 59\, exit on the left onto K-10/South Law rence Trafficway right before you enter Lawrence. Take the Clinton Pkwy ex it and turn left onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign onto E 90 0 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow the roa d to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\n### PARK ENTRY FE ES\n\nThe Night Hawk starts and finishes at Shelter 1\, Army Corps of Engi neers Overlook Park at Clinton Lake. There is no entry fee for Overlook Pa rk or for running on the trails\, but in order to enter the state park by vehicle\, you must buy either a day pass for $5 or an annual entry permit for $25. Camping and cabin rentals are available in the state park. The st ated prices are taken from the Department’s website at http://kdwp.state .ks.us/news/License-Permits and may be subject to change.\n\n### INCLEMENT WEATHER\n\nWe will do our very best to make this race happen as described and promised\, however due to the lovely Kansas weather\, we want to addr ess a few issues regarding the possibility of inclement weather. As the RD ’s of the race\, our first and foremost concern is the safety of the run ners\, volunteers\, and everyone involved in the race. Our second concern is that we do not damage the trails or the park. With that being said\, pl ease know we will be watching the weather and if there are any concerns\, we will make updates. We may delay the start of the race\, use an alternat e course that runs on the roads through the state park\, or lastly\, postp one the race for another date. Postponing a race is very costly and not pr eferred\, and canceling a race is just not an option due to the amount of money and time our runners put into the preparation of a race.\n\n### NO L ITTERING!\n\nWe take littering very seriously and reserve the right to dis qualify anyone who does so.\n\nHave fun\, be kind and courteous to each ot her\, respect all animals and nature\, and leave no trace behind.\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2018/jul/01/the-night-hawk-4/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Fourth Annual Skyline Shuffle DTSTART:20180506T130000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2018/may/06/skyline-shuffle-4/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Tough enough for veterans\; short enough for beginners\, the S kyline Shuffle 5K Trail Run is a rugged romp up grassy slopes and through the woodlands of Clinton Lake State Park. The heart of the run is a nearly 1-mile section of tall-grass trail known as "Bunker Hill\," offering maje stic views of Clinton Lake and the surrounding countryside. Runners encoun ter this section twice during the run\, and may glimpse the fabled "Sky-Cl intie\," the legendary winged creature of Clinton Lake\, said to have desc ended from prehistoric times. You will definitely see plenty of other like -minded people out for a fantastic spring race. Snacks at the finish\, awa rds for first three male and female finishers\, and cool Skyline Shuffle r unning socks for all entrants. Hope to see you there!\n\nThe race will beg in and end at the southwest corner of Campground Three. This is the same a rea that hosts the West Park Road aid station in the Hawk Hundred\, 50 and 26.2 Mile Trail Races. Parking will be in the grassy field next to the l arge shower/restroom facility on the main road into Campground Three\, but we're still confirming this.\n\nFrom the start\, the course proceeds up B unker Hill and heads east along the ridge\, descending across a dirt road\ , and heading past the "honey ponds" into an expanded version of the woode d Goodwin Loop. The additional section includes a shallow water crossing. You will likely cross with dry feet. Emerging from this section\, runners once again climb and traverse Bunker Hill\, and return to the start/finish .\n\nThis is a challenging\, scenic course that lives up to the race monik er "Short enough for beginners\; hard enough for veterans." Because of the wonderful views of lake\, park and sky from the top of Bunker Hill\, the race is named "The Skyline Shuffle." Sign up at [ultrasignup.com](https:// ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=44706) if you haven't already\, and holl er at Race Directors Josh or Matt with any questions.\n\nYou can see the competition at [ultrasignup.com/entrants](https://ultrasignup.com/register .aspx?did=44706)\n\nThanks for your interest and we hope to see you there! \n\nJosh McVey and Matt O'Reilly\, race directors\n\nDirections:\nUpon ent ering the Clinton State Park Lawrence\, KS you will need a sticker for the day if you do not have a yearly pass. Stop at the Kiosk to obtain this. If you arrive prior to the kiosk opening\, there is a self-pay station at campground 3 to obtain the parking permit. All vehicles must have this p ermit.\n\nProceed West on the main park road to Campground 3. Make a left turn and take the immediate right to the parking area and race check in. A volunteer will assist with parking. No parking is allowed next to the main park road.\n\nThere is a large bathroom facility with showers at this campground and a restroom 500 feet from the finish line.\n\n![](https://w ww.evernote.com/shard/s27/sh/18be5f6b-46ce-427e-8afb-dda39ec0605d/536b4405 ebd3196f8b5cb446ea5ec70f/deep/0/ShorelineShuffleInfo2015---Google-Docs.png )\n\n\n**PREDICTION RUN:**\n\nNot in the running for a first place finish? Not a problem! As we did last year\, we will be giving out a “Time Pred iction” award. This is an optional completion to see not who can run the fastest\, but who has the most precision pacing prowess. Guess your time for the race and let me know by May 5th. Whomever runs closest to their pr edicted time wins! Interested? Here’s the details:\n\n1) Anyone register ed online for the Skyline Shuffle\, or anyone who registers at packet pick up\, may choose to go for the prediction award. There’s no extra cost\, and nothing special you need to do during registration.\n\n2) Email me (or tell me at packet pickup) your prediction for what time you will run the Skyline Shuffle in. I need to have the times in by May 6th-race day is too chaotic to be collecting predictions!\n\n3) (Here’s the important one)- if you are going for the prediction run\, you cannot run with a watch or e lectronic device capable of keeping track of time! After all\, it’s not much of a feat of precision pacing prowess if your Garmin is keeping track for you. (Remember-the time prediction is optional-if you want to run the race with your phone/mp3 player/GPS/microwave\, we’d love to have you\, and you’re still eligible for the top three fastest men/women awards).\ n\n4) We’ll have the timer set up in a way so runners can see it as they cross the finish\, but not sooner. (Hopefully. I need to think about how that’ll work.)\n\n5) Whoever guesses closest to their actual time wins t he prediction award. If two runners tie (e.g.\, two people each manage to be\, say\, three seconds off their predictions)\, the award will go to who ever was closest on a percentage basis (that is\, the slower runner).\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2018/may/06/skyline-shuffle-4/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Eighth Annual Pi Day River Rotation - Marathon\, Half Marathon and Pi Miler DTSTART:20180310T133000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2018/mar/10/pi-day-river-rotation-half-m arathon-and-5k/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Trail run on a smooth\, fast course with a few hills sprinkled in for fun.\nThe Pi Miler\, starting at 7:30 am\, is 2 loops of different distances\, totaling 3.14 miles (just over a 5K).\nThe River Rotation Hal f Marathon\, starting at 9 am\, is a 13.14 mile three-loop course\, altern ating between counter clockwise and clockwise directions.\n\nNew for 2018\ , we are introducing the Pi Day River Rotation Full Marathon!

There are also r ight-turn\, left-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course i s designed so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees\, except on the out-and-backs to Bunker Hill/Goodwin Loop and Sanders Mound. The trail will be marked with reflectors during the night portion of the 100-mile race. You must have a headlamp or flashlight in or der to see these. The Park has also marked the trail with mile markers\, s o please pay attention to those also. They are true measured miles and not GPS miles\, so you will be slightly off on your mileage if you are wearin g a GPS. \n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is m aking your way on the course. We will do our BEST to mark the course and t hink like a trail runner\, but please familiarize yourself with the cours e beforehand. \n\n### Trail Blazes\n\nIn addition to signs\, flags and rib bons\, runners should also watch for the white\, blue and red blazes on th e trails. The westerly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked with ** BLUE** blazes. A one-mile detour along the Clinton Lake shoreline will be marked with **RED** blazes. When the course turns back east toward Lands E nd\, it will be marked with **WHITE** blazes.\n\nIn addition to the white\ , blue and red blazes on the westerly\, easterly and shoreline trails\, yo u may see trails marked with both white and blue or red and blue blazes.

They will be marked w ith wrong-way signs and/or ribbons\, but in case the signs get knocked ove r or vandalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white\, blue o r red blazes as shown in the photos.\n\n### Course Description\n\n**100-mi le and 50-mile races:** You’ll begin at the Start/Finish and run about a n eighth of a mile to the trail head for the blue-blazed trail. Make a lef t turn onto the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yards to the Sanders Mound trail. You’ll take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out- and-back to the top of Sanders Mound where you will find a bucket of trink ets\, pick one each time you run the mound\, you give it to the Lands End aid station captain or if you prefer you hold onto them until the end of t he race and give them to the RD. After you descend the Mound you will get back on the blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station.\n\nF rom Lands End you’ll take the Red-blazed shoreline trail until it meets back up with the blue-blazed trail. The blue-blazed trail will turn into t he white-blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End at a point known as Cactus Ridge.\n\nThe white-blazed trail will take you to the West Park Road aid s tation. From there\, leave the trails and follow the signs\, flags and rib bons along West Park Road\, staying on the grass\, to Bunker Hill. This is the Goodwin Loop. Complete the 2.5-mile Goodwin Loop\, which includes a t raverse of Bunker Hill\, and return to the West Park Road aid station. You ’ll then continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End aid st ation.\n\nLeaving Lands End you will continue on the white-blazed trail ba ck to the Start/Finish aid station. This completes one loop of the course. \n\n**Marathon:** Marathon runners will follow the same course as the 50- and 100-mile runners\, but they will run an additional 1.2 miles at the be ginning of the race.\n\n**Big Loop**: At the Start/Finish aid station\, ru nners will have completed 25 miles (26.2 for marathoners)—what we call t he “Big Loop.” Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three more times and 50-milers one more time.\n\n**When the trails cross**: The white-blazed t rail and the blue-blazed trail cross at several points on the course. The crossings will be heavily marked and signed\, but it is your responsibilit y to read and heed the markers\, signs\, and white\, blue and red blazes t o stay on course.\n\n### Aid Stations\n\nThe 2017 Hawk is a fully-staffed race with three aid stations manned by experienced UltraRunners.

This race takes its name from the winding natur e of the course\, set amid the rugged trails and old-growth forest of the north shore of Clinton Lake\, Lawrence\, Kan. The Snake traverses the conn ector trails between the north shore's blue- and white-blazed trail system s out about 5 miles and back again. The unique course layout promises to p rovide a new experience to even the seasoned Clinton Lake veteran! The Sna ke features a midway aid station staffed by fellow trail runners and a pos t-race watermelon feast for runners\, volunteers\, families and friends. T he Snake is designed for runners who like using the words "brutal" and "fu n" in the same sentence.\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2017/jul/15/the-snake-2/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Third Annual The Night Hawk DTSTART:20170625T010000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2017/jun/25/the-night-hawk-3/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Check-in will begin at 7:00 pm at Shelter 1. We request all ru nners be checked in by 7:45 pm at which time we will have the pre-race bri efing. The race will begin at 8:00 pm. Drop bags need to be brought to the allotted area by 7:45 pm. They will be loaded and taken to the aide stati on and/or left in a designated area at the start/finish line aide station\ , whichever you prefer. They will be brought back to the start/finish line at the completion of the race\, or you may go get them if you prefer.\n\n It is required that all runners carry a water battle or hydration pack for your race. You will also need a headlamp. There is a cut off time of 10 h ours.\n\nWe love dogs\, and if you let us know ahead of time we’ll even get your pup a race bib. However\, as a courtesy to other runners\, your d og must remain on a leash for the duration of the race. If the alternate c ourse is used\, we prefer no dogs running with the runners.\n\n### COURSE DESCRIPTION\n\nThis 50K course consists of mostly rugged trails running th rough the beautiful trees\, out on the white trail to Land's End (~6 1/2 m iles) and returning to the Start/Finish line on the blue trail(~3 1/2 mile s). This is a 3 loop course with each loop running 10.3 miles long.\n\nAid e stations are located at Land's End and the Start/Finish Line and will ha ve water\, sports drink\, gels\, fruit\, and sweet and salty snacks.\n\nAl ternate Course will be approximately 70% asphalt paved roads and 30% cross country type running. We apologize for the pavement but we must preserve the trails so they will be runnable again soon and hopefully we will be on the regularly scheduled course next year. The alternate course will be we ll marked and staffed to keep you on course.\n\nFirst Aide Station is loca ted at about 5 miles into the loop\, at the intersection of 1415 Rd and 70 0 Road. It is located prior to entering the Loop of Ultimate Darkness cros s country section. You will see it on your way out and you will pass by it again on your back to the start/finish line aid station. There are only 2 aide stations due to the looping course.\n\nThe start/finish line will ha ve some good grub available for a post-race refueling. We will have regula r\, vegan\, vegetarian and gluten free options.\n\n### COURSE MARKERS\n\nT he course is marked with flags and ribbons. There are also right-turn\, le ft-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is designed so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees. The trail will be marked with reflectors and you must have a headlamp or f lashlight in order to see these.\n\nAlternate Course will be well marked a nd we will have course monitors out there to keep you going in the right d irection.\n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is m aking your way on the course. We will do our BEST to make it easy for you to stay on course. That said\, wind\, animals\, vandals or your own blurry vision may cause you to miss a marker or a turn\, so please pay attention .\n\n### TRAIL BLAZES (Not applicable when using the Alternate course)\n\n In addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners should also watch for t he white and blue blazes on the trails. The westerly\, out-bound portion o f the course is marked with white blazes. At the Land’s End Aide Station \, you will be directed to the blue trail where you will follow blue blaze s back to the start/finish line aide station.\n\nIn addition to the white and blue blazes on the westerly and easterly trails\, you may see trails m arked with both white and blue blazes. These are “connector trails.” D o not follow them. They will be marked with wrong-way signs and/or ribbons \, but in case the signs get knocked over or vandalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white or blue blazes.\n\n### PLEASE HELP KEEP TH E TRAILS AND PARK CLEAN\n\nRunners in all the Lawrence Trail Hawks races h ave been notable for not littering. Please help us continue the great trad ition of running a clean race\, and don’t leave trash on our beautiful t rails.\n\n### LEAVING THE RACE\n\nSeeing you finish is the reason we’re putting on this race. If for some reason that’s not possible\, you MUST report to the Start/Finish\, which will be staffed throughout the race. Yo u can also call one of the Race Directors listed below:\n\n### DIRECTIONS TO THE RACE\n\nYour best bet is to use Google Maps to chart your route. Us e this coordinate for the destination. It puts you right at the Start/Fini sh: Overlook Park @38.939175\,-95.339651.\n\nIf you’re traveling to the race on I-70\, get off at Exit 197 toward Lecompton/Lawrence and head sout h for about four miles on Highway K-10/South Lawrence Trafficway. You’ll see a sign for Clinton Lake. Take the Clinton Pkwy exit. At the bottom of the ramp\, turn right onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign ont o E 900 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow t he road to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\nIf you’re traveling from the south on Hwy 59\, exit on the left onto K-10/South Law rence Trafficway right before you enter Lawrence. Take the Clinton Pkwy ex it and turn left onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign onto E 90 0 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow the roa d to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\n### PARK ENTRY FE ES\n\nThe Night Hawk starts and finishes at Shelter 1\, Army Corps of Engi neers Overlook Park at Clinton Lake. There is no entry fee for Overlook Pa rk or for running on the trails\, but in order to enter the state park by vehicle\, you must buy either a day pass for $5 or an annual entry permit for $25. Camping and cabin rentals are available in the state park. The st ated prices are taken from the Department’s website at http://kdwp.state .ks.us/news/License-Permits and may be subject to change.\n\n### INCLEMENT WEATHER\n\nWe will do our very best to make this race happen as described and promised\, however due to the lovely Kansas weather\, we want to addr ess a few issues regarding the possibility of inclement weather. As the RD ’s of the race\, our first and foremost concern is the safety of the run ners\, volunteers\, and everyone involved in the race. Our second concern is that we do not damage the trails or the park. With that being said\, pl ease know we will be watching the weather and if there are any concerns\, we will make updates. We may delay the start of the race\, use an alternat e course that runs on the roads through the state park\, or lastly\, postp one the race for another date. Postponing a race is very costly and not pr eferred\, and canceling a race is just not an option due to the amount of money and time our runners put into the preparation of a race.\n\n### NO L ITTERING!\n\nWe take littering very seriously and reserve the right to dis qualify anyone who does so.\n\nHave fun\, be kind and courteous to each ot her\, respect all animals and nature\, and leave no trace behind.\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2017/jun/25/the-night-hawk-3/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Third Annual Skyline Shuffle DTSTART:20170506T130000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2017/may/06/skyline-shuffle-3/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Tough enough for veterans\; short enough for beginners\, the S kyline Shuffle 5K Trail Run is a rugged romp up grassy slopes and through the woodlands of Clinton Lake State Park. The heart of the run is a nearly 1-mile section of tall-grass trail known as "Bunker Hill\," offering maje stic views of Clinton Lake and the surrounding countryside. Runners encoun ter this section twice during the run\, and may glimpse the fabled "Sky-Cl intie\," the legendary winged creature of Clinton Lake\, said to have desc ended from prehistoric times. You will definitely see plenty of other like -minded people out for a fantastic spring race. Snacks at the finish\, awa rds for first three male and female finishers\, and cool Skyline Shuffle r unning socks for all entrants. Hope to see you there!\n\nThe race will beg in and end at the southwest corner of Campground Three. This is the same a rea that hosts the West Park Road aid station in the Hawk Hundred\, 50 and 26.2 Mile Trail Races. Parking will be in the grassy field next to the l arge shower/restroom facility on the main road into Campground Three\, but we're still confirming this.\n\nFrom the start\, the course proceeds up B unker Hill and heads east along the ridge\, descending across a dirt road\ , and heading past the "honey ponds" into an expanded version of the woode d Goodwin Loop. The additional section includes a shallow water crossing. You will likely cross with dry feet. Emerging from this section\, runners once again climb and traverse Bunker Hill\, and return to the start/finish .\n\nThis is a challenging\, scenic course that lives up to the race monik er "Short enough for beginners\; hard enough for veterans." Because of the wonderful views of lake\, park and sky from the top of Bunker Hill\, the race is named "The Skyline Shuffle." Sign up at [ultrasignup.com](https:// ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=44706) if you haven't already\, and holl er at Race Directors Josh or Matt with any questions.\n\nYou can see the competition at [ultrasignup.com/entrants](https://ultrasignup.com/register .aspx?did=44706)\n\nThanks for your interest and we hope to see you there! \n\nJosh McVey and Matt O'Reilly\, race directors\n\nDirections:\nUpon ent ering the Clinton State Park Lawrence\, KS you will need a sticker for the day if you do not have a yearly pass. Stop at the Kiosk to obtain this. If you arrive prior to the kiosk opening\, there is a self-pay station at campground 3 to obtain the parking permit. All vehicles must have this p ermit.\n\nProceed West on the main park road to Campground 3. Make a left turn and take the immediate right to the parking area and race check in. A volunteer will assist with parking. No parking is allowed next to the main park road.\n\nThere is a large bathroom facility with showers at this campground and a restroom 500 feet from the finish line.\n\n![](https://w ww.evernote.com/shard/s27/sh/18be5f6b-46ce-427e-8afb-dda39ec0605d/536b4405 ebd3196f8b5cb446ea5ec70f/deep/0/ShorelineShuffleInfo2015---Google-Docs.png )\n\n\n**PREDICTION RUN:**\n\nNot in the running for a first place finish? Not a problem! As we did last year\, we will be giving out a “Time Pred iction” award. This is an optional completion to see not who can run the fastest\, but who has the most precision pacing prowess. Guess your time for the race and let me know by May 5th. Whomever runs closest to their pr edicted time wins! Interested? Here’s the details:\n\n1) Anyone register ed online for the Skyline Shuffle\, or anyone who registers at packet pick up\, may choose to go for the prediction award. There’s no extra cost\, and nothing special you need to do during registration.\n\n2) Email me (or tell me at packet pickup) your prediction for what time you will run the Skyline Shuffle in. I need to have the times in by May 6th-race day is too chaotic to be collecting predictions!\n\n3) (Here’s the important one)- if you are going for the prediction run\, you cannot run with a watch or e lectronic device capable of keeping track of time! After all\, it’s not much of a feat of precision pacing prowess if your Garmin is keeping track for you. (Remember-the time prediction is optional-if you want to run the race with your phone/mp3 player/GPS/microwave\, we’d love to have you\, and you’re still eligible for the top three fastest men/women awards).\ n\n4) We’ll have the timer set up in a way so runners can see it as they cross the finish\, but not sooner. (Hopefully. I need to think about how that’ll work.)\n\n5) Whoever guesses closest to their actual time wins t he prediction award. If two runners tie (e.g.\, two people each manage to be\, say\, three seconds off their predictions)\, the award will go to who ever was closest on a percentage basis (that is\, the slower runner).\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2017/may/06/skyline-shuffle-3/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Seventh Annual Pi Day River Rotation - Half Marathon and 5K DTSTART:20170311T140000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2017/mar/11/pi-day-river-rotation-half-m arathon-and-5k-7/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Trail run on a smooth\, fast course with a few hills sprinkled in for fun. \n\nThe Pi Miler\, starting at 8 am\, is 2 loops of different distances\, totaling 3.14 miles (just over a 5K).\n\nThe River Rotation H alf Marathon\, starting at 9 am\, is a 13.14 mile three-loop course\, alte rnating between counter clockwise and clockwise directions. \nThere will b e a single aid station located at the trail head.

There are a lso right-turn\, left-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The cou rse is designed so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s bl azes on the trees\, except on the out-and-backs to Bunker Hill/Goodwin Loo p and Sanders Mound. The trail will be marked with reflectors during the n ight portion of the 100-mile race. You must have a headlamp or flashlight in order to see these. The Park has also marked the trail with mile marker s\, so please pay attention to those also. They are true measured miles an d not GPS miles\, so you will be slightly off on your mileage if you are w earing a GPS. \n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is making your way on the course. We will do our BEST to mark the course and think like a trail runner\, but please familiarize yourself with the course beforehand. \n\n### Trail Blazes\n\nIn addition to signs\, flags an d ribbons\, runners should also watch for the white\, blue and red blazes on the trails. The westerly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked wi th **BLUE** blazes. A one-mile detour along the Clinton Lake shoreline wil l be marked with **RED** blazes. When the course turns back east toward La nds End\, it will be marked with **WHITE** blazes.\n\nIn addition to the w hite\, blue and red blazes on the westerly\, easterly and shoreline trails \, you may see trails marked with both white and blue or red and blue blaz es. These are “connector trails.” Do not follow them. They will be mar ked with wrong-way signs and/or ribbons\, but in case the signs get knocke d over or vandalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white\, b lue or red blazes as shown in the photos.\n\n### Course Description\n\n**1 00-mile and 50-mile races:** You’ll begin at the Start/Finish and run ab out an eighth of a mile to the trail head for the blue-blazed trail. Make a left turn onto the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yard s to the Sanders Mound trail. You’ll take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out-and-back to the top of Sanders Mound where you will find a bucket of trinkets\, pick one each time you run the mound\, you give it to the Lands End aid station captain or if you prefer you hold onto them until the end of the race and give them to the RD. After you descend the Mound you will get back on the blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station. \n\nFrom Lands End you’ll take the Red-blazed shoreline trail until it m eets back up with the blue-blazed trail. The blue-blazed trail will turn i nto the white-blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End at a point known as Ca ctus Ridge.\n\nThe white-blazed trail will take you to the West Park Road aid station. From there\, leave the trails and follow the signs\, flags an d ribbons along West Park Road\, staying on the grass\, to Bunker Hill. Th is is the Goodwin Loop. Complete the 2.5-mile Goodwin Loop\, which include s a traverse of Bunker Hill\, and return to the West Park Road aid station . You’ll then continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End a id station.\n\nLeaving Lands End you will continue on the white-blazed tra il back to the Start/Finish aid station. This completes one loop of the co urse.\n\n**Marathon:** Marathon runners will follow the same course as the 50- and 100-mile runners\, but they will run an additional 1.2 miles at t he beginning of the race.\n\n**Big Loop**: At the Start/Finish aid station \, runners will have completed 25 miles (26.2 for marathoners)—what we c all the “Big Loop.” Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three more time s and 50-milers one more time.\n\n**When the trails cross**: The white-bla zed trail and the blue-blazed trail cross at several points on the course. The crossings will be heavily marked and signed\, but it is your responsi bility to read and heed the markers\, signs\, and white\, blue and red bla zes to stay on course.\n\n### Aid Stations\n\nThe 2017 Hawk is a fully-sta ffed race with three aid stations manned by experienced UltraRunners. Aid stations will offer Tailwind Nutrition\, Water\, Coke\, Mountain Dew and G inger-ale. We serve Honey Stinger gels\, chews and waffles and S-caps as o ur additional electrolyte.

The Snake traverses t he connector trails between the north shore's blue- and white-blazed trail systems out about 5 miles and back again. While the course will be heavil y marked with flags and signs\, even runners experienced with the north sh ore trails may find themselves feeling as though they're on new and strang e territory. Swag includes a custom tri-blend tank top for women\, and uni sex running shirt for men or women\; and the classic illustrated "Pocket G uide to Kansas Snakes\," donated by Westar Energy. The Snake features a mi dway aid station staffed by fellow trail runners and a post-race watermelo n feast for runners\, volunteers\, families and friends. The Snake is desi gned for runners who like using the words "brutal" and "fun" in the same s entence. Can you take The Snake? Or will you break?\n\n**SPECIAL SNAKE SAF ETY ANNOUNCEMENT**\n\nThe race directors have just concluded a special arr angement with the snakes of Clinton Lake not to attack any runners in "The Snake." On signing up\, each entrant will be given a unique "snake name." As a runner\, if you encounter a snake on the trail\, simply identify you rself with your secret snake name\, then give the snake as wide a berth as possible. Molesting snakes in any way violates the terms of our agreement . When snakes and people meet\, both should depart unharmed.

We request all ru nners be checked in by 7:45 pm at which time we will have the pre-race bri efing. The race will begin at 8:00 pm. Drop bags need to be brought to the allotted area by 7:45 pm. They will be loaded and taken to the aide stati on and/or left in a designated area at the start/finish line aide station\ , whichever you prefer. They will be brought back to the start/finish line at the completion of the race\, or you may go get them if you prefer.\n\n It is required that all runners carry a water battle or hydration pack for your race. You will also need a headlamp. There is a cut off time of 10 h ours.\n\nWe love dogs\, and if you let us know ahead of time we’ll even get your pup a race bib. However\, as a courtesy to other runners\, your d og must remain on a leash for the duration of the race. If the alternate c ourse is used\, we prefer no dogs running with the runners.\n\n### COURSE DESCRIPTION\n\nThis 50K course consists of mostly rugged trails running th rough the beautiful trees\, out on the white trail to Land's End (~6 1/2 m iles) and returning to the Start/Finish line on the blue trail(~3 1/2 mile s). This is a 3 loop course with each loop running 10.3 miles long.\n\nAid e stations are located at Land's End and the Start/Finish Line and will ha ve water\, sports drink\, gels\, fruit\, and sweet and salty snacks.\n\nAl ternate Course will be approximately 70% asphalt paved roads and 30% cross country type running. We apologize for the pavement but we must preserve the trails so they will be runnable again soon and hopefully we will be on the regularly scheduled course next year. The alternate course will be we ll marked and staffed to keep you on course.\n\nFirst Aide Station is loca ted at about 5 miles into the loop\, at the intersection of 1415 Rd and 70 0 Road. It is located prior to entering the Loop of Ultimate Darkness cros s country section. You will see it on your way out and you will pass by it again on your back to the start/finish line aid station. There are only 2 aide stations due to the looping course.\n\nThe start/finish line will ha ve some good grub available for a post-race refueling. We will have regula r\, vegan\, vegetarian and gluten free options.\n\n### COURSE MARKERS\n\nT he course is marked with flags and ribbons. There are also right-turn\, le ft-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is designed so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees. The trail will be marked with reflectors and you must have a headlamp or f lashlight in order to see these.\n\nAlternate Course will be well marked a nd we will have course monitors out there to keep you going in the right d irection.\n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is m aking your way on the course. We will do our BEST to make it easy for you to stay on course. That said\, wind\, animals\, vandals or your own blurry vision may cause you to miss a marker or a turn\, so please pay attention .\n\n### TRAIL BLAZES (Not applicable when using the Alternate course)\n\n In addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners should also watch for t he white and blue blazes on the trails. The westerly\, out-bound portion o f the course is marked with white blazes. At the Land’s End Aide Station \, you will be directed to the blue trail where you will follow blue blaze s back to the start/finish line aide station.\n\nIn addition to the white and blue blazes on the westerly and easterly trails\, you may see trails m arked with both white and blue blazes. These are “connector trails.” D o not follow them. They will be marked with wrong-way signs and/or ribbons \, but in case the signs get knocked over or vandalized\, please know you should follow only SINGLE white or blue blazes.\n\n### PLEASE HELP KEEP TH E TRAILS AND PARK CLEAN\n\nRunners in all the Lawrence Trail Hawks races h ave been notable for not littering. Please help us continue the great trad ition of running a clean race\, and don’t leave trash on our beautiful t rails.\n\n### LEAVING THE RACE\n\nSeeing you finish is the reason we’re putting on this race. If for some reason that’s not possible\, you MUST report to the Start/Finish\, which will be staffed throughout the race. Yo u can also call one of the Race Directors listed below:\n\n### DIRECTIONS TO THE RACE\n\nYour best bet is to use Google Maps to chart your route. Us e this coordinate for the destination. It puts you right at the Start/Fini sh: Overlook Park @38.939175\,-95.339651.\n\nIf you’re traveling to the race on I-70\, get off at Exit 197 toward Lecompton/Lawrence and head sout h for about four miles on Highway K-10/South Lawrence Trafficway. You’ll see a sign for Clinton Lake. Take the Clinton Pkwy exit. At the bottom of the ramp\, turn right onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign ont o E 900 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow t he road to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\nIf you’re traveling from the south on Hwy 59\, exit on the left onto K-10/South Law rence Trafficway right before you enter Lawrence. Take the Clinton Pkwy ex it and turn left onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign onto E 90 0 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow the roa d to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\n### PARK ENTRY FE ES\n\nThe Night Hawk starts and finishes at Shelter 1\, Army Corps of Engi neers Overlook Park at Clinton Lake. There is no entry fee for Overlook Pa rk or for running on the trails\, but in order to enter the state park by vehicle\, you must buy either a day pass for $5 or an annual entry permit for $25. Camping and cabin rentals are available in the state park. The st ated prices are taken from the Department’s website at http://kdwp.state .ks.us/news/License-Permits and may be subject to change.\n\n### INCLEMENT WEATHER\n\nWe will do our very best to make this race happen as described and promised\, however due to the lovely Kansas weather\, we want to addr ess a few issues regarding the possibility of inclement weather. As the RD ’s of the race\, our first and foremost concern is the safety of the run ners\, volunteers\, and everyone involved in the race. Our second concern is that we do not damage the trails or the park. With that being said\, pl ease know we will be watching the weather and if there are any concerns\, we will make updates. We may delay the start of the race\, use an alternat e course that runs on the roads through the state park\, or lastly\, postp one the race for another date. Postponing a race is very costly and not pr eferred\, and canceling a race is just not an option due to the amount of money and time our runners put into the preparation of a race.\n\n### NO L ITTERING!\n\nWe take littering very seriously and reserve the right to dis qualify anyone who does so.\n\nHave fun\, be kind and courteous to each ot her\, respect all animals and nature\, and leave no trace behind.\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2016/jun/26/the-night-hawk-2/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Second Annual Skyline Shuffle DTSTART:20160507T130000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2016/may/07/skyline-shuffle-2/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Tough enough for veterans\; short enough for beginners\, the S kyline Shuffle 5K Trail Run is a rugged romp up grassy slopes and through the woodlands of Clinton Lake State Park. The heart of the run is a nearly 1-mile section of tall-grass trail known as "Bunker Hill\," offering maje stic views of Clinton Lake and the surrounding countryside. Runners encoun ter this section twice during the run\, and may glimpse the fabled "Sky-Cl intie\," the legendary winged creature of Clinton Lake\, said to have desc ended from prehistoric times.

Snacks at the finish\, awa rds for first three male and female finishers\, and cool Skyline Shuffle r unning socks for all entrants. Hope to see you there!\n\nThe race will beg in and end at the southwest corner of Campground Three. This is the same a rea that hosts the West Park Road aid station in the Hawk Hundred\, 50 and 26.2 Mile Trail Races. Parking will be in the grassy field next to the l arge shower/restroom facility on the main road into Campground Three\, but we're still confirming this.\n\nFrom the start\, the course proceeds up B unker Hill and heads east along the ridge\, descending across a dirt road\ , and heading past the "honey ponds" into an expanded version of the woode d Goodwin Loop. The additional section includes a shallow water crossing. You will likely cross with dry feet. Emerging from this section\, runners once again climb and traverse Bunker Hill\, and return to the start/finish .\n\nThis is a challenging\, scenic course that lives up to the race monik er "Short enough for beginners\; hard enough for veterans." Because of the wonderful views of lake\, park and sky from the top of Bunker Hill\, the race is named "The Skyline Shuffle."

There are also right-tur n\, left-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is design ed so that you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the t rees\, except on the out-and-backs to Bunker Hill/Goodwin Loop and Sanders Mound. The trail will be marked with reflectors during the night portion of the 100-mile race. You must have a headlamp or flashlight in order to s ee these.\n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race.

That said\, wind \, animals\, vandals or your own blurry vision may cause you to miss a mar ker or a turn and we’re not looking to paint the entire course orange.\n \n### Trail Blazes\n\nIn addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners s hould also watch for the white\, blue and red blazes on the trails. The we sterly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked with **blue** blazes. A one-mile detour along the Clinton Lake shoreline will be marked with **re d** blazes. When the course turns back east toward Lands End\, it will be marked with **white** blazes.\n\nIn addition to the white\, blue and red b lazes on the westerly\, easterly and shoreline trails\, you may see trails marked with both white and blue or red and blue blazes. These are “conn ector trails.” Do not follow them. They will be marked with wrong-way si gns and/or ribbons\, but in case the signs get knocked over or vandalized\ , please know you should follow only SINGLE white\, blue or red blazes as shown in the photos.\n\n### Course Description\n\n**100-mile and 50-mile r aces:** You’ll begin at the Start/Finish and run about an eighth of a mi le to the trail head for the blue-blazed trail. Make a left turn onto the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yards to the Sanders Moun d trail. You’ll take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out-and-back to the top of Sanders Mound where you will find a hole punch for your bib. From t here you’ll get back on the blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station.\n\nFrom Lands End you’ll take the red-blazed shoreline tra il until it meets back up with the blue-blazed trail. The blue-blazed trai l will turn into the white-blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End 1 at a po int known as Cactus Ridge.\n\nThe white-blazed trail will take you to the West Park Road aid station. From there\, leave the trails and follow the s igns\, flags and ribbons along West Park Road\, staying on the grass\, to Bunker Hill. This is the Goodwin Loop. Complete the 2.5-mile Goodwin Loop\ , which includes a traverse of Bunker Hill\, and return to the West Park R oad aid station. You’ll then continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End aid station.\n\nLeaving Lands End you will continue on the w hite-blazed trail back to the Start/Finish aid station.

The crossings will be heavily marked and signed\, but it i s your responsibility to read and heed the markers\, signs\, and white\, b lue and red blazes to stay on course.\n\n### Aid Stations\n\nThe 2015 Hawk is a fully-staffed race.

If the alternate c ourse is used\, we prefer no dogs running with the runners.\n\n### COURSE DESCRIPTON\n\nThis 50K course consists of mostly rugged trails running thr ough the beautiful trees\, out on the white trail to Land's End (~6 1/2 mi les) and returning to the Start/Finish line on the blue trail(~3 1/2 miles ). This is a 3 loop course with each loop running 10.3 miles long.\n\nAide stations are located at Land's End and the Start/Finish Line and will hav e water\, sports drink\, gels\, fruit\, and sweet and salty snacks.\n\nAlt ernate Course will be approximately 70% asphalt paved roads and 30% cross country type running. We apologize for the pavement but we must preserve t he trails so they will be runnable again soon and hopefully we will be on the regularly scheduled course next year. The alternate course will be wel l marked and staffed to keep you on course.\n\nFirst Aide Station is locat ed at about 5 miles into the loop\, at the intersection of 1415 Rd and 700 Road. It is located prior to entering the Loop of Ultimate Darkness cross country section. You will see it on your way out and you will pass by it again on your back to the start/finish line aid station. There are only 2 aide stations due to the looping course.\n\nThe start/finish line will hav e some good grub available for a post-race refueling. We will have regular \, vegan\, vegetarian and gluten free options.\n\n### COURSE MARKERS\n\nTh e course is marked with flags and ribbons. There are also right-turn\, lef t-turn\, straight ahead\, and wrong way signs. The course is designed so t hat you can follow it using the Park Department’s blazes on the trees. T he trail will be marked with reflectors and you must have a headlamp or fl ashlight in order to see these.\n\nAlternate Course will be well marked an d we will have course monitors out there to keep you going in the right di rection.\n\nThis\, of course\, is a trail race. Part of a trail race is ma king your way on the course. We will do our BEST to make it easy for you t o stay on course. That said\, wind\, animals\, vandals or your own blurry vision may cause you to miss a marker or a turn\, so please pay attention. \n\n### TRAIL BLAZES (Not applicable when using the Alternate course)\n\nI n addition to signs\, flags and ribbons\, runners should also watch for th e white and blue blazes on the trails. The westerly\, out-bound portion of the course is marked with white blazes. At the Land’s End Aide Station\ , you will be directed to the blue trail where you will follow blue blazes back to the start/finish line aide station.\n\nIn addition to the white a nd blue blazes on the westerly and easterly trails\, you may see trails ma rked with both white and blue blazes. These are “connector trails.” Do not follow them. They will be marked with wrong-way signs and/or ribbons\ , but in case the signs get knocked over or vandalized\, please know you s hould follow only SINGLE white or blue blazes.\n\n### PLEASE HELP KEEP THE TRAILS AND PARK CLEAN\n\nRunners in all the Lawrence Trail Hawks races ha ve been notable for not littering. Please help us continue the great tradi tion of running a clean race\, and don’t leave trash on our beautiful tr ails.\n\n### LEAVING THE RACE\n\nSeeing you finish is the reason we’re p utting on this race. If for some reason that’s not possible\, you MUST r eport to the Start/Finish\, which will be staffed throughout the race. You can also call one of the Race Directors listed below:\n\n### DIRECTIONS T O THE RACE\n\nYour best bet is to use Google Maps to chart your route. Use this coordinate for the destination. It puts you right at the Start/Finis h: Overlook Park @38.939175\,-95.339651.\n\nIf you’re traveling to the r ace on I-70\, get off at Exit 197 toward Lecompton/Lawrence and head south for about four miles on Highway K-10/South Lawrence Trafficway. You’ll see a sign for Clinton Lake. Take the Clinton Pkwy exit. At the bottom of the ramp\, turn right onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign onto E 900 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow th e road to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\nIf you’re traveling from the south on Hwy 59\, exit on the left onto K-10/South Lawr ence Trafficway right before you enter Lawrence. Take the Clinton Pkwy exi t and turn left onto Clinton Parkway. Go right at the stop sign onto E 900 Rd\, then take the first left on N 1402 Rd into the park. Follow the road to the parking lot at the Start/Finish\, Shelter 1.\n\n### PARK ENTRY FEE S\n\nThe Night Hawk starts and finishes at Shelter 1\, Army Corps of Engin eers Overlook Park at Clinton Lake. There is no entry fee for Overlook Par k or for running on the trails\, but in order to enter the state park by v ehicle\, you must buy either a day pass for $5 or an annual entry permit f or $25. Camping and cabin rentals are available in the state park. The sta ted prices are taken from the Department’s website at http://kdwp.state. ks.us/news/License-Permits and may be subject to change.\n\n### INCLEMENT WEATHER\n\nWe will do our very best to make this race happen as described and promised\, however due to the lovely Kansas weather\, we want to addre ss a few issues regarding the possibility of inclement weather. As the RD ’s of the race\, our first and foremost concern is the safety of the run ners\, volunteers\, and everyone involved in the race. Our second concern is that we do not damage the trails or the park. With that being said\, pl ease know we will be watching the weather and if there are any concerns\, we will make updates. We may delay the start of the race\, use an alternat e course that runs on the roads through the state park\, or lastly\, postp one the race for another date. Postponing a race is very costly and not pr eferred\, and canceling a race is just not an option due to the amount of money and time our runners put into the preparation of a race.\n\n### NO L ITTERING!\n\nWe take littering very seriously and reserve the right to dis qualify anyone who does so.\n\nHave fun\, be kind and courteous to each ot her\, respect all animals and nature\, and leave no trace behind.\n URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2015/jun/13/night-hawk-first-annual/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:First Annual Skyline Shuffle DTSTART:20150502T130000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2015/may/02/shoreline-shuffle-5k-seventh -annual/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Tough enough for veterans\, short enough for beginners\, the S horeline Shuffle 5K Trail Run is a rugged romp through the woodlands of Cl inton Lake State Park. The heart of the run is a 1.1-mile section of tooth y trail known as "The Jaws of Clintie\," along the shores of Clinton Lake. Clintie\, as you may\, know is the legendary sea-creature that haunts the lake's depths. Some say Clintie is half catfish\, half alligator\, grown to the size of a Buick! You may catch a glimpse of Clintie if you're fooli sh enough to look up from the technical trail while running. You will defi nitely see plenty of other like-minded people out for a fantastic spring r ace. Snacks at the finish\, awards for first three male and female finishe rs\, and a cool Shoreline Shuffle coffee mug for all entrants. Hope to see you there!\n\n***Updated: SHORELINE SHUFFLE MOVING TO ALTERNATE COURSE*** \n\nDue to current trail conditions\, forecasts of inclement weather\, and upcoming trail repair work\, the Shoreline Shuffle 5K Trail Race\, set fo r Saturday\, May 2nd\, 8 a.m.\, is moving off the North Shore Trail System to its alternate trail course.\n\nInstead of beginning in the southwest c orner of Campground One as normal\, the race will begin and end at the sou thwest corner of Campground Three. This is the same area that hosts the We st Park Road aid station in the Hawk Hundred\, 50 and 26.2 Mile Trail Race s.\n\nParking will likely be in the grassy field next to the large shower/ restroom facility on the main road into Campground Three\, but we're still confirming this.\n\nFrom the start\, the course proceeds up Bunker Hill a nd heads east along the ridge\, descending across a dirt road\, and headin g past the "honey ponds" into an expanded version of the wooded Goodwin Lo op. The additional section includes a shallow water crossing. Josh and I m ade it across today with dry feet. Emerging from this section\, runners on ce again climb and traverse Bunker Hill\, and return to the start/finish.\ n\nThis is a challenging\, scenic course that lives up to the race moniker "Short enough for beginners\; hard enough for veterans." Because of the w onderful views of lake\, park and sky from the top of Bunker Hill\, I've n icknamed the 2015 race "The Skyline Shuffle." Sign up at https://ultrasign up.com/register.aspx?did=31893 if you haven't already\, and holler at me\, Josh or Matt with any questions.\n\nYou can see the competition at https: //ultrasignup.com/entrants_event.aspx?did=31893\n\nThanks for understandin g about the course change. Josh\, Matt and I look forward to seeing you at the 2015 Shuffle!\n\n\n### Directions\n\nDirections:\nUpon entering the C linton State Park Lawrence\, KS you will need a sticker for the day if you do not have a yearly pass. Stop at the Kiosk to obtain this. If you arr ive prior to the kiosk opening\, there is a self pay station at campground 3 to obtain the parking permit. All vehicles must have this permit.\n\nP roceed West on the main park road to campground 3. Make a left turn and t ake the immediate right to the parking area and race check in. A voluntee r will assist with parking.

Marathon starts at 7am.\n\nAll three races are run on a 25 mile loop which is 90% wooded and 10% open. T his is a deceptively challenging course. The elevation will add up and the rocks and roots will require your attention. That said\, Clinton Lake is a beautiful venue to run at with extremely well-marked and well-maintained trails to enjoy.\n\nMarathoners will cover the extra 1.2 miles before hea ding onto the loop for their race. Last year I promised a Slip N' Slide on this section and didn't deliver. This year I'm going looking for those hu ge foam jousting sticks they used on American Gladiators.\n\nThe course ha s three aid stations\, one at the start/finish\, one at Lands End and one at West Park Road\, both of which runners will go through twice. Longest d istance between aid stations will be West Park Road to Land's End - approx 6 miles. Shortest distance between aid stations will be approx 2 miles\, when the runners do an out-and-back up Bunker Hill from West Park Road.\n\ nAid stations will have most everything you'd expect at an ultra along wit h limited options for the vegans among you. The one thing I'd suggest you carry with you or put in a drop bag is S-caps and whatever flavor of GU do esn't make you puke after a long day of running. We'll also have hot food for the overnight hours including soup so think you're guaranteed to not b e able to puke it back up!\n\nEach aid station will be staffed by experien ced ultrarunners and crew who will be more than happy to pop your blisters \, feed you M&Ms\, tell you you look great when you really don't\, and kic k you out when you've been lounging for too long.\n\nThere will be two dro p bag locations not including the start/finish. Drop bags at Lands End wil l be accessible twice each loop as well drop bags at West Park Road. We le arned our lesson the first year and won't share the contents of your drop bag with the local Raccoon population (I still feel really bad about that) .\n\nCrews can see their runners at the start/finish and at the West Park Road aid station (approx mile 12). Your crew WILL have to purchase a park pass in order to access the West Park Road aid station! Daily passes go fo r just under $5.00.\n\nPacers are allowed after 50 miles or 12 hours (whic hever comes first) and may join at either the start/finish or at West Park Road. If you're an out-of-towner and are looking for a local pacer drop a note in the comments and we'll do our best to find you a date guaranteed to spend the rest of the night with you - can't beat that.\n\n100 milers m ay drop to the 50 during the race but won't qualify for any awards. 100 mi lers may also drop to the 50 or marathon before the race begins\, 50 miler s may drop to the marathon before the race begins. 50 milers may not drop to the marathon during the race.\n\nThe weather in Kansas in September is\ , at best\, unpredictable. It may be as hot as 100 degrees or nearly freez ing. It may have been raining constantly the two weeks leading up to the r ace or it may not have rained all summer. Anticipate anything and bring an extra pair of socks.\n\nThe top three male and female finishers in each r ace will receive special awards. Sub 24-hour 100 mile finishers will recei ve a special belt buckle\, 24-32 hour 100 mile finishers will receive a be lt buckle\, 50 mile finishers will receive a special award\, and marathon finishers will receive a medal.\n\nThere will be a required pre-race brief ing and dinner for the 50 and 100 mile entrants the night before the race. Marathon entrants are more than welcome to attend. We will provide the ma in course(s) (pasta/burgers/hot dogs)\, we just ask that you bring a side to share. The dinner will be at the start/finish and will begin at 6pm.\n\ nWe (and the runners) always appreciate volunteers. If you're interested\, contact co-RD Coleen Voeks: pigtailultrarunner@gmail.com.\n\nCamping is a vailable at Clinton Lake. There are some very nice cabins available as wel l.

You do NOT have to run for 12 hours ... you can come out and run 1 loop or 20 loops\, you don't even have to s tart at 7pm\, you can show up anytime after 7 and start .... there are NO rules!

This is not my rule but the Prairie Center s rule and I do not want my ability to put this race on jeopardized. NO DO GS! (Or cats\, or llamas\, or goats...)\n\nThis event is FREE... but we do very happily accept donations which will be split between the Olathe Prai rie Center and the Lawrence Trail Hawks. The Prairie Center uses the money for wildlife education for kids and also trail improvements. The Lawrence Trail Hawks provide the insurance and supplies to put on the race.\n\nNow to the fun stuff..... the best part about this race is the food. We have always done this race as a "pot luck"... we ask that everyone bring a litt le something to share. In past years we have had pots and pots of homemade soups\, ciders\, hot coffee\, homemade cookies\, pies\, fruit\, chips... if it's a food\, we've probably had on a table at this race! This is not a requirement but its fun to see just how much food you can eat and still r un!\n\nThe course is a loop so every 3 miles you will come around to the s tart/finish (a historic home with light\, bathrooms and HEAT!). You can st ash your stuff in your car or leave it under the tents we will have set up outside so you can aid yourself and keep going... or go inside the house and socialize for a bit. The Hawks supply jugs of water\, GU\, Heed and ho t coffee. \n\nNEW THIS YEAR:: Everyone will be assigned a number this year ... PLEASE make sure you check in at the house before the start of the rac e and sign the waiver and get your number!! We haven't gotten fancy enough for chip timing yet\, but you will mark off your laps on a sheet correspo nding to your number. VERY IMPORTANT!! \n\nIf you can't make this event... do NOT fear..

Marathon starts at 7am.\n\nAll three races are run on a 25 mile loop which is 90% wooded and 10% open area. Thi s is a deceptively challenging course. The elevation will add up and the r ocks and roots will require your attention. That said\, Clinton Lake is a beautiful venue to run at with extremely well-marked and well-maintained t rails to enjoy.\n\nMarathoners will cover the extra 1.2 miles before headi ng onto the loop for their race. It's most likely to be all uphill on a S lip 'N Slide\, or something equally nefarious.\n\nThe course has three aid stations\, one at the start/finish\, one at Lands End and one at West Par k Road\, both of which runners will go through twice. Longest distance be tween aid stations will be West Park Road to Land's End - approx 6 miles. Shortest distance between aid stations will be approx 2 miles\, when the runners do an out-and-back up Bunker Hill from West Park Road.\n\nAid stat ions will have most everything you'd expect at an ultra along with limited options for the vegans among you. The one thing I'd suggest you carry wit h you or put in a drop bag is S-caps and whatever flavor of GU doesn't mak e you puke after a long day of running. \n\nEach aid station will be staff ed by experienced ultrarunners and crew who will be more than happy to pop your blisters\, feed you M&Ms\, tell you you look great when you really d on't\, and kick you out when you've been lounging for too long.\n\nThere w ill be two drop bag locations not including the start/finish. Drop bags a t Lands End will be accessible twice each loop as well drop bags at West P ark Road. We learned our lesson the first year and won't share the conten ts of your drop bag with the local Raccoon population.\n\nCrews can see th eir runners at the start/finish and at the West Park Road aid station (app rox mile 12). Your crew WILL have to purchase a park pass in order to acc ess the West Park Road aid station! Daily passes go for just under $5.00. \n\nPacers are allowed after 50 miles or 8 hours and may join at either th e start/finish or at West Park Road.

It’s the summertime sweaty ass versio n of the winter frozen fat ass!!\n\nA fat ass is a super low-key run usual ly put on after the Christmas holidays so everyone can work off the “fat ass” that they got from eating WAAAAAAAAYYYYY too much pie! The first o ne was put on in 1978 and the format hasn’t changed much since then. It ’s usually a no entry fee\, no aid\, no awards type thing\, pretty much just a big group training run. This is the summertime version….hence the name Sweaty Ass! If you haven't been to one of these runs\, you've missed out on a fantastic time... I'm not sure which is more fun\, the eating\, the running or the socializing with 70+ runners!\n\n\nSaturday August 11 2 012 starting at 7 PM at Olathe Prairie Center.

The course will be open fo r 11 hours. No pressure to do any distance but the one you feel like doing ! The trails are fantastic and even if it rains for a week before hand the re will not be any WYCO or Clinton style mud! If there is rain the week of the race there will be water crossings\, but as dry as this summer has be en I anticipate that they will be bone dry.\n\n\nThere are porta johns on the property. We will have access to a small historic house at the start/f inish area which equals a place to hang out\, power and a fridge. \n\n\nTh e parking lot is a few steps away from the race course so you can easily g et aid from your car. \nSince a Fat Ass is traditionally styled “no aid ” you will be expected to be responsible for your own nutritional needs. BUT that said... we also ask that everyone bring an item to share.. wheth er that be soda\, cookies\, fruit\, chips... any item that you would eat w hile running or eat afterwards while socializing. The Lawrence Trail Hawks will provide water\, Heed and watermelon.\n\nOur wintertime version featu red an absolute smorgasboard of wonderful delights to share contributed by our runners… I don’t think anyone actually lost any weight that night but we sure had a great time and the summer version will be the same… j ust with less snow… and warmer temps….\n\nAny questions??\nColeen\n913 -636-1451\npigtailultrarunner@gmail.com URL:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2012/aug/12/coleens-sweaty-ass-run-third -annual/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Fourth Annual Shoreline Shuffle DTSTART:20120505T130000Z DTSTAMP:20260430T111906Z UID:https://hawkhundred.com/races/2012/may/05/shoreline-shuffle-fourth-ann ual/ CATEGORIES: DESCRIPTION:Goodbye\, Fall…we moved this race to the Spring!

It's the summertime sweaty ass version of the winter fat ass!!\n\n\nFor those of you that don't know what a Fat Ass Race is let me educate you a bit! A fat ass is a super low-key run usuall y put on after the Christmas holidays so everyone can work off their "fat ass" that they got from eating WAAAAAAAAYYYYY too much pie! The first one was put on in 1978 and the format hasn't changed much since then. It's usu ally a no entry fee\, no aid\, no awards type thing\, pretty much just a b ig group training run. This is the summertime version....hence the name Sw eaty Ass! And for those of you that missed our January Fat Ass\, you misse d out on a freezing cold good time!\n\n\nFriday August 13 2010 starting at 8 PM at Olathe Prairie Center (if you haven't run out there you really sh ould!) It's a great course: gorgeous\, serene\, good footing which is perf ect for night running\, a couple of water crossings and few small hills. T his is a NIGHT TRAIL RUN.. you will be required to have a headlamp and/or flashlight!! There are NO streetlights out there. NO PETS ALLOWED!\n\n\n\n No entry fee but will we accept donations for the Lawrence Trail Hawks and for the Prairie Center itself.\n\nThis is a 3.2 mile loop and you can do as many loops as you'd like. The course will be open for 10 hours. No pres sure to do any distance but the one you feel like doing! The trails are fa ntastic and even if it rains for a week beforehand there will not be any W YCO or Clinton style mud!\n\nI'd love to see as many people come out as po ssible and just do whatever distance you feel like. It'll be a great chanc e to get in some night running in a safe place with a bunch of friends.\n\ nThere are porta johns on the property. We will have access to a small his toric house at the start/finish area which equals a place to hang out\, an d plug ins for crock pots and coffee urns\, there is a fridge and the Lawr ence Trail Hawks will supply water\, Heed and cold watermelon.\n\nThe park ing lot is a few steps away from the race course so you can easily get aid from your car also. Since a Fat Ass is traditionally done as "no aid" you will be expected to bring the majority of your own supplies.... If anyone wants to bring any items to share it would be welcome! Our wintertime ver sion featured an absolute smorgasboard of wonderful delights to share cont ributed by our runners... I don't think anyone actually lost any weight th at night but we sure had a great time and I anticipate the summer version being the same... just with less snow... and warmer temps....
