The Hare Mountain 100 is a challenging point-to-point race that tests runners' mental and physical endurance in Arkansas's rugged wilderness. Covering 100 miles on the Ozark Highlands Trail, participants will tackle steep ascents and relentless climbs amid stunning landscapes featuring hardwood, cedar, and pine forests. The course includes two scenic spur loops and showcases beautiful waterfalls, dramatic bluffs, and vibrant fall foliage, offering a breathtaking backdrop for this strenuous adventure. Runners must be prepared for self-sufficiency, as the trail is marked only by white and blue blazes, necessitating navigation skills. With long stretches between the 13 aid stations and substantial elevation gains estimated at 20,000 to 24,400 feet, competitors should prioritize preparation and confidence in their abilities. A GPS tracking device is mandatory to help ensure participants stay on course in this remote and raw environment.
