The ORRRC Outdoor X 12-Hour Endurance Run & RUCK brings a full-day challenge to Eastwood Lake within the Outdoor Experience expo. Also known as OX12, this time-based event invites runners and ruckers to complete a flat loop of more than 2.6 miles as many times as possible. The surface is primarily grass and doubletrack trail, with a small portion on bike path. The marked route includes the roped drop bag area near the scoring table and the restrooms as part of the official course space. Success is measured by distance covered in twelve hours. To earn finisher status, participants remain on course for the entire duration and must still be moving at the end. Laps are counted and a timing system tracks total mileage. A headlamp or flashlight is needed at the start. On-course support includes an aid station at the start and finish with Tailwind Performance drink, water, chips, pretzels, PB&J and other snacks, plus a roped drop bag area for quick changes and refueling without stepping off the course. Those who stay out the full twelve hours receive a finisher award, and anyone surpassing 35 miles may request an engraved mileage award for later pickup. Awards are presented to the top three finishers in both the women’s and men’s divisions, with ties decided by who reaches the line first on the final lap. Guide dogs and guide runners may assist visually impaired athletes, and all guides and pacers must sign a waiver. Parking is adjacent to the campground, but the handicapped lot and the Subaru lot are reserved for those who qualify. Event shirts are available only at packet pickup and are not mailed. Volunteer opportunities are available. Race director: Lawrence Chow, OX12RD@gmail.com.
