Special Note:
The Flint Hills region of east-central Kansas is an extremely remote area. You will rarely pass
through any towns, and there are no convenience stores between checkpoints. Always be aware
of the distance to the next checkpoint and be prepared to travel that distance with the supplies
you carry. Participants are solely responsible for their personal well-being, will have to make their
own informed decisions, and suffer the consequences of those decisions. Please be aware... if
you break down or become injured, it is YOUR responsibility to contact your support crew to
come get you. DO NOT CALL US. WE WILL NOT COME RESCUE YOU. EVENT PROMOT-
ERS AND SPONSORS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR SAFETY AND WELL-BEING. If
you sign up for this event, make sure you have a support crew with a well thought out emergency
backup plan. If you do not feel you are prepared to meet such a challenge, please consider a
shorter route option. If you do not have your own support crew, consider our support Crew-For-
Hire powered by GU option, as described on our online registration page.
