Overview

It is hard to get a good run in July in Oklahoma. It’s hot and humid. A great night trail run and a party is the best way around it. In addition, you want a safe venue. This run will have all that you need. With two 5k courses (one rocky single track and the other a gravel road), this run will allow all ages, genders, and ability levels to feel safe and enjoy a great run. Dark and Dirty Miles at Robbers Cave will offer distances of 5k, 10k, 25k, and 50k. Come hang out and get Dirty!

This is a night race so bring your headlamps!!!

Party Atmosphere!!

Amazing food at the start/finish!!

This is a family and friends race. Bring your chairs and canopies as everyone sets up around the start/finish because the runners come through often.

Photography

Mile 90 will be making the runners look good and capturing spectacular images for you to share. These are free with your registration. Please visit their website www.mile90.com.

Outlaw Trail Series

Complete all 6 trail runs in the Outlaw Trail Series (Outlaw, Lake McMurtry, Greater Roadrunner Trail Run, Flower Moon, Dark and Dirty, and Thunderbird) in a calendar year and receive a cool plaque to recognize your achievement. Distance is not a factor (in other words, you can run the 5K or the 135mile). Virtual options do exist that allow runners to complete the series even if they are unable to attend an event in person. An Oklahoma-shaped plaque with hooks looks great as a display for awesome medals.

Course Description

A variety of distances to choose from with offerings of 50K, 25K, 10K and 5K on rocky single track or gravel road. All distances are multiples of the 5K courses (50K is the 5K ten times) which has about 450 feet of gain. Please message us for a gpx of the course.

If you do any lap on gravel, you are considered gravel. Otherwise, you may mix and match the loops as you like.

Virtual Run

Unable to attend and still want to participate? Virtual options do exist that allow runners to obtain a coveted medal or complete the series even if they are unable to attend an event in person. We realize that other life obligations come up.

Cutoff/Drop Bags

The cut off for all events is 7am.

You may leave drop bags at the start/finish area.

Packet Pickup

Race day pick up at the start/finish from 4-6:30 pm.

Awards Policy

We work hard on our swag because we know you work hard for our swag!!! We do allow drop downs to receive the medal for the longest distance completed (but not qualify for place). Drop down medals are subject to availability. Many of our races feature a medal that is common to multiple distances with differing ribbons. A percentage of runners will receive a ribbon without distance to create flexibility and allow as many runners to participate as possible.

Discounts/Benefits

Military Discount
If you are currently active duty Military or a Veteran, we'd like to give our thanks by extending a 10% discount for your entry fee. Please message us at Outlaw 100 for the coupon code.

Child Discount (in person only)
Outlaw events are meant to be amongst family and friends. As such, any parent entry will entitle one child (15 yo and under) to a free entry of same or lesser distance. We understand that registering all the kids gets expensive so here is a chance for the kids to get a great medal and T-shirt and to be active and healthy as a family. Please message us at Outlaw 100 for the coupon code.

Volunteer Discount
Along with a T-shirt and the normal fun of volunteering, we would like to do more. It takes a community to put on quality races, but volunteers also need to be appreciated. The program will be as follows: Shifts are in 4-8 hour increments and you must sign up. If you volunteer for one shift at any of our races you will get 25% off registration for any of our future races. Distance is not a factor. So 4 shifts will be a free race.

Camping/Travel/Lodging

Camping is available on site at the Redbud Campgrounds at the start finish. Robbers Cave Cabins and the Belle Star hotel are available only a couple miles away. Wilburton has local hotels and McAlester is the closest larger town. The Tulsa International Airport is the closest airport.

Policies

You may defer (for any reason) to any of our subsequent races. Prior to registration closing, you can defer by editing your race in ultrasignup.

There will be no deferments after the race has occurred. Contact us on messenger at Outlaw 100 or by email to arrange deferments during this time period.

We do not allow transfers.

Cancellation will only be in the event of extreme circumstances (inclement weather; local, state, or national emergency) and is at the race directors discretion. If for any reason the event has to be shut down due to extreme weather, natural disaster, etc… you will be pulled from the course or held at an aid station until you can be removed from the course. Please, no arguing if this should happen. It is for your own safety. If the race has to be cancelled, no refunds will be issued.

NEW THIS YEAR

Race registration is for the race only. We understand many of you do not wish to acquire more and more t-shirts or other swag items as you have indicated. In an attempt to keep race registrations as low as we can, we have added our swag items to be purchased separately in our linked store.
Our finisher awards have changed a little bit as well. See below for that information.

PONY EXPRESS RELAY

David Larson, Mike Miller, Mark German

Lyons, KS                                                       33:42-1984

One of Kansas' original Trail Runs that began in 1982. The course includes roadways, rolling native grassland, cowboys, the famed Suicide Hill and start/finish on Main Street.  This course is as beautiful as it is demanding and it brings out the best in runners each year.

Overview

The Flower Moon on May 13th with gorgeous Dreamcatcher-inspired medals!! Located within Osage Hills State Park (one of Oklahoma’s seven original State Parks), Flower Moon will offer distances of 4, 13.1, 26.2, and 50 (52ish) miles. Yes, the 50 mile is a bit long, but that buckle should make it worth that extra effort. Read the historical book, watch the Scorsese/DiCaprio movie (shooting on location at the park), run the trails, and collect the swag. We have so much planned for this trail run, including Fry Bread Tacos after the race! It is going to be extraordinary!!

Atmosphere!!

This race will be a bit different from most trail runs as runners of the varying distances should finish at similar times. With staggered starting times, all the runs are scheduled for the average finisher to complete the run around 6PM. This will allow us to all eat Fry Bread Tacos together and visit/party after the race.

Outlaw Trail Series

Complete all 6 trail runs in the Outlaw Trail Series (Outlaw, Lake McMurtry, Greater Roadrunner Trail Run, Flower Moon, Dark and Dirty, and Thunderbird) in the calendar year 2022 and receive a cool plaque to recognize your achievement. Distance is not a factor (in other words, you can run the 5K or the 135mile). Virtual options do exist that allow runners to complete the series even if they are unable to attend an event in person. An Oklahoma-shaped plaque with hooks to hang the medals will make a nice Christmas arrival next year.

Course Description

The run features a great single track course with some technical areas, but is also very runnable. Located completely within Osage Hills State Park which offers 1,100 acres, this is a beautiful run through the woods with gorgeous scenery around the lake and the old CCC camp. The half marathon has about 1,100 feet of gain running it twice for the marathon and four times for the fifty mile. Please see the course maps in the pictures above or at our website (gpx files also available) at www.Outlaw100.com.

Virtual Run

Unable to attend and still want to participate? Virtual options do exist that allow runners to obtain a coveted medal or complete the series even if they are unable to attend an event in person. We realize that other life obligations come up.
