Staggered Race Starts

Race Start

All races, except 50-kilometer, will have groups of approximately twelve (12) runners starting the race at 5-minute intervals. The 50-kilometer race will allow fifteen (15) runners per starting corral.

Individual runners and teams will be mixed together at the start for the 100-mile and 50-mile distances.

Starting time/corral placement will be selected by the individual runner when they register, first-come, first-served. ASSIGNMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE IN THE RACE DIRECTOR'S SOLE DISCRETION WITHIN 30 MINUTES OF THE SELECTED TIME. Team Captains will select a preferred time subject to availability and effort will be made to honor those preferences. AGAIN, THESE ASSIGNMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE IN THE RACE DIRECTOR'S SOLE DISCRETION. KEYS100® official times are "net"--i.e., the clock starts when the runner crosses the start line timing mat.

100-mile races staggered starts begin at 5:40 am, after limited elite corrals beginning at 5:15am.

50-mile race staggered starts begin at 9:00 AM

50-kilometer race staggered starts begins at Noon.
