2011 Butte 100

Well it's that time again, time to start work for the 2011 Butte 100. This coming years race will have a few changes, changes that will help everyone have a great time and a very rewarding experience. The 100 mile option course will see the biggest change as we will go to a 2 50 mile lap format. The course will be the existing 50 mile course. Aid stations will be approx. 10 miles apart and we will have Aid station to aid station GPS with a video. We are planing on once again having mile markers through out the course. Another big change is in the awards, we will be paying 5 deep and in both the 100 mile and the 50 mile. Also this will be a 3 day event, a Friday afternoon racer mandatory meeting with packet pickup, Saturday of course is the race, Sunday will be Awards presentations with a breakfast.
Both race options will start within 30 minutes of each other starting at 6am.
No more same day entries, entry deadline will be pre-race meeting Friday afternoon (4pm) That's it for now, more to follow soon.
Thanks,

TRP
