Course Map

The 2024 map will be released after we find out our placement (July 2024). There might be slight adjustments – stay tuned!

2023 map: Start, finish, and aid station at PINK LIGHTNING – at 7:35 and D !  See course map & turn by turn directions below – exact route (w turnaround point) will be confirmed on the playa.

2023 Course:    Start at Pink Lightning.  Immediately head left to 8:00. Make a right on 8:00, then head to good ol’ Esplanade. Head left.  Wave to crowds, smile at the man. Make left on 10:00.  When you get to 10:00 & L, turn right, and run straight all the way to trash fence.  There will be a giant pink lightning bolt covered gate there; run through it, enjoying the spectacle of the art piece, making a right after you run through it.  Follow the trash fence around, keep going, eat/drink at aid station, keep going, until you hit 2:00, over by the Walk-In Camping. Run through the next spectacular gate there.  Yep.  Run along 2:00, pass all streets. Left on Esplanade. Keep going.  Run on Esplanade. Left on 7:30. Then right on D.  We’re at 7:35 and D!  Drink water, eat.  Repeat 3 more times. Run the out and back – run like you’re going to run a 5th loop but look for the turnaround point (TBD)…turn around and ran back the way you came. YOU ARE DONE!
