Big Basin question re trail

[James]

Re the 15+ kilo loop on which 40 oz of water is recommended: When is the last time b4 we hit that loop that we pass the starting line? (I want to store my 2nd h2o bottle at start, so I can retrieve it later and have to carry it as little as possible.)

2nd question: How many times do we pass the starting area during the race, and are there any drop bag locations? I believe there aren't.

Thanks much for the info.

James,

It's not clear which race distance you are running, but the 15K/25K/50K all START with the 15K loop...so whichever it is for you, it will be the full 15K (9M) loop before returning to start/finish area aid station, 25K/50K entrants will then run 10K loop, then after that 50K entrants will repeat 15K/10K loops a second time.

I encourage you to check both the course map & course description provided on event page.

Good luck.
