Each Aid Station is will be supported with several volunteers eager to assist you in making the most of your experience.
Skyline 50k has 4 aid stations, and you’ll have 8 aid station stops (because you hit some aid stations twice!) There is also a water fountain on the course between Marciel Road and Bort Meadow. Each station will be well stocked with all the treats runners love to help them get through the day, including fresh fruit, chips, gels, potatoes and salt, candy, cookies, soda, water, sports drink and other assorted goodies.
The aid stations will also have ice, sponges, and water buckets to help runners cool down. A pop-up tent for shade and some chairs will be available should you really need a moment to relax before continuing on.
Because of parking constraints, your crew can’t access all of the aid stations. Note that the Old Church Station is accessible for crew through the Redwood Road entrance to Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park. Crew will need to park and walk to the station which is up the Stream Trail past the Fern Dell camp area. The stations that have driving directions allow crew.
