The program will be as follows: Shifts are in 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.

Runners may not be “dropped down” to a shorter distance once they start a race, and will not appear as finishers of the shorter distance. This ensures a fair event where runners know their competition and cannot be lowered in place by a runner dropping down in distance. Runners may switch distances before the start of their race and will be eligible as a finisher in that event

Sky Trail Adventure Challenge
Scouts BSA Sky Trail Adventure Challenge Description
Beginning at Osage Hills State Park, run 2.3 miles to Scout Camp McClintock, gear up and ascend the 24-foot climbing tower, zipline across Sand Creek, mostly run (slowing down to cross the suspension bridge!) another 0.5 miles to then kayak (kayaks provided!) 0.75 miles of the creek (out and back), and return on the trail to Osage Hills State Park (2.6-mile run from the creek).
Sky Trail
Our name was inspired by, and with help from, the Osage Nation whose history is in this land. A unique portion of this journey takes you above the trees to beautiful views, leading to the selection of the Osage word meaning both sky and upper world.
Cherokee Area Council Scouts BSA
For 114 years in Northeast Oklahoma, Scouting has been helping youth build self-confidence and develop academic, ethical, leadership, and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives. Your entrance fees help provide powerful programming throughout six counties in Oklahoma. Visit https://cherokeebsa.org for more information!
Additional Information
Osage Hills Stage Park charges $10 daily for parking. Reserve in advance at https://www.premiumparking.com/p4621(or buy an annual pass and park at any of the lovely parks around Oklahoma!)
Safety is always our top priority. Please be patient with our certified volunteers and staff who are ensuring your safety with proper equipment at the climbing tower and kayaks. This race will be for any adult (18 and over). We’re keeping our entry numbers low so everyone can have an enjoyable experience, and we will stagger the start times as we know donning safety equipment takes time. As we have no proper climbing equipment for our furrier friends, dogs will not be allowed to participate in this event.
Packet pickup will begin at 7am at the Bike Trails entrance in Osage Hills State Park on the morning of the event; the first group will start at 8 am.
Entry includes a long-sleeve, moisture-wicking technical shirt. Our finisher “medals” are Ugly Mugz BSA Camp mugs. An adult Scout volunteer will be onsite with our branding irons, so you can choose a Scout-related design to brand on the mug! Since this is a small group, we will have commemorative awards for the first place competitor in each gender category.
Available for purchase from our vendor friends:
Scissortail Brewery will have kegs of craft beer to fill your newly earned camp mug!

General Course Description
100-mile & 75-mile Start time: 6:00AM. 50-mile Start time 7:AM Runners 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 onto the blue-blazed trail and follow it a couple hundred yards to the Sanders Mound trail. Runners take a left and do a quick 1.1 mile out-and-back to the top of Sanders Mound. From there runners get back on the blue-blazed trail and head for the Lands End aid station.
From Lands End, take the RED blazed trail for about 1 mile and then connect with the blue-blazed trail. Follow the BLUE trail and after crossing the Park road and it will turn into the white-blazed trail 3.5 miles from Lands End 1 at a point known as Cactus Ridge.
The white-blazed trail will take runners to the West Park Road aid station. From there, leave the trails and follow the signs, 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 Road aid station. Runners then continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Lands End aid station.
Leaving Lands End, continue on the white-blazed trail back to the Start/Finish aid station. This completes one loop of the course.
Big Loop: At the Start/Finish aid station, runners will have completed 25 miles (26.2 for marathoners)—what we call the “Big Loop.” Hundred-milers repeat the Big Loop three more times, 75-milers two more times, and 50-milers one more time.
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 the runner's responsibility to read and heed the markers, signs, and white and blue blazes to stay on course.
Marathon: Start time 8:00AM - runners will follow the same course as the 50, 75, and 100-mile runners, but they will run an additional 1.2 miles at the beginning of the race.
Aid Stations
The Hawk is a fully-staffed race with three aid stations, manned by experienced UltraRunners. The usual food and drink, with Tailwind and Honey Stinger products will be available at each of the aid stations. Aid stations usually offer a mix of vegan/vegetarian/omnivore options, including hot food and soups in the overnight hours. Aid station protocols will follow guidance from local health authorities and other safety precautions as necessary to protect the runners and our volunteers. Following are the locations and distances runners will hit aid stations as they traverse the 25-mile course (26.2 for marathoners).

The course is a 400 meter track at Valley Center Intermediate School in Valley Center, KS at 737 N Meridian, Valley Center, KS 67147. The track is located to the west/behind the school. Fast and flat! How many miles can you run? It’s up to you! The event will be chip-timed by the Timer Guys. Details on that below.
This course will be certified and eligible for state records! We will also apply to have it be a USATF sanctioned event.
We will change directions every 4 hours.
To receive a finisher award, you will need to complete a 50K in your event. IF YOU CAN'T COMPLETE A 50K IN 6 HOURS AND WANT A FINISHER AWARD, SIGN UP FOR THE 12 HOUR RACE.
Keep in mind: 4 laps = .99 mile or 1600 meters and 1609 meters = 1 mile.
AID STATION
The aid station in 2024 will be potluck style or BYOA. We will provide ice and water, you bring your own aid and something to share with others. We will have a couple of tables for shared items. The aid station and runner staging area will be on the opposite side of the track from the start/finish line. You're welcome to stop at your chair/aid as often or as little as you'd like.
CREW INFO
The course will be more crowded this year because it's on a track. Therefore, pacers will NOT be allowed for 2024. Tents and small pop-up tents and canopies ARE allowed on the infield. Dogs can be kept in the parking lot area, but will NOT be allowed in the track area for 2024.
TRACK ETIQUETTE
We will adopt rules from similar races. With so many runners going for PRs or even state/national records, we want to avoid collisions and conflict. All runners must follow these rules:
-ALWAYS hug the inside lane if you are running at a reasonable pace relative to other runners. Never try to predict another runner coming from behind or make room for them on the inside because they are going faster than you.
-Leave room for other runners to pass in the outside of lane 1, not all the way in lane 2.
-Runners passing from behind will always move to the outside of lane 1 to make a pass.
-If multiple runners are passing at the same time at different speeds, the inside of lane 2 is reserved for double passes.
-If you are taking an extended walk-break or have slowed enough to disrupt the flow of the rest of the race, please use the outside of lane 2 or inside of lane 3.
-If you are getting aid or using the restroom and need to get to the outside of lane 2, always check that you will not cut off another runner by doing so.
-Runners who are using short walk-breaks as a strategy for hitting their goals are permitted to do so without moving to the outside of lane 2. This rule is meant to impact runners who have slowed to the point of missing their stated goals or records and are taking an extended walk break and thus disrupting the flow of the event.
-While we love the camaraderie of ultrarunning, please keep the camaraderie in a single file line, not multiple people across multiple lanes.
Inside of lane 1- running or strategic walk breaks
Outside of lane 1- passing
Inside of lane 2- passing with multiple people
Outside of lane 2- Slow/walking
DROP BAGS
Bring your crew, chairs and drop bags. Runners will be able to set up on the infield, along the track though there will be a no-aid zone near the start/finish line.
CHIP TIMING
The MyLaps BibTag chip timing system will be used for the KUS 6/12/24 Hour Run. Your race bib is also your chip for timing purposes. Please do not bend or remove the timing chip from the back of the bib number. Since you will get your bib on race day/night, it is very important that you wear your bib as you start the race. It is also very important for your number to be on the front and visible at the finish line, so please attach it to the outside of any clothing. **IMPORTANT!** You DO need to cross the timing mat at 6:00am (or 6:00pm) at the start of the first lap. Once you have completed your event, please remove your bib and place it inside your vehicle to prevent it from inadvertently calculating additional laps.
AGE LIMIT
All runners under 18 years old must have a parent or guardian either running the race or at the race AT ALL TIMES.
FAQ
-Can I walk the whole time? Absolutely! Whether running or walking, only completed laps count. Please reserve lane 1 for those that are running.
-Can I bring a camper? Sure! Keep it in the parking lot.
-Can I pitch a tent? You bet!
-Do I have to go the full 6, 12 or 24 hours? You don't. You're welcome to stop whenever you like, but please make sure to let us know before you leave the race if you stop early.
-Can I get a refund if I change my mind? No, but we can defer your entry one time to next year's race.
Dark and Dirty Miles

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!!

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.
