Saturday March 20th 2010 9am - 3pm

Information
This unique race will be a six hour timed run taking place on mostly flat, rock and root free, single track trails on the western side of Turkey mountain. The run will start March 21st, 2009 at 9:00 am, and run until 3:00 pm. The course will head northwest from the old upper parking lot following some of the trails used in the Turkey and Taturs race, then north onto the Snake Trail. These are some of the smoothest and easiest trails on the "mountain". We also have taken great pains to remove all of the larger snakes from the course. Just kidding. Actually, the snake trail gets its name because it winds around like a snake, not because of an infestation of slithery reptiles!

Are You Ready for an Adventure ?

The Tatur Six Hour Snake Run works like this. The race starts a 9 A.M. sharp. After six hours (3P.M.) the runner who has ran the most miles wins.

The course will be a four mile circuit that you will try to complete as many times as possible. You can run four miles, stop, and call it a day, or you can run 20 miles and get your last long run in before the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon, or you can run four miles, grill yourself some food and run a couple of more loops. You basically can do whatever you want as long as you attend this test of endurance.

First 120 entrants will recieve a high quality tecnical fabric shirt. We will not order more shirts and sizes are not guaranteed.

You will run exactly 2 miles out, and then return and run the trail in reverse to the start/finish area.

There will be 2 aid stations, one at the start finish area near the upper parking lot, and one at the turnaround. You do not have to run for the entire six hours. You can run one out and back, run until you complete a half marathon, a marathon or a 50K if you're real fast. All starters who complete one out-and-back segment will receive a short sleeve technical fabric T-shirt with our TATUR mascot being hotly pursued by a vicious viper!

The picture above and to the right shows the relative smoothness of the trail. You do not need trail shoes. You can choose to run a 1/4 mile out and back during the last hour for those not able to complete a full 4 mile out-and-back circuit. The winner is the one who after 6 hours covers the most miles. You can choose to run one circuit, then sleep for an hour and do another etc.

The entry fee is $30. Tatur members recieve a $5 discount and children 12 and under are free (shirt not included), The $30 entry fee includes the shirt, and 2 awesome buffets of trail food and drinks. We are going to limit this race to the first 120 people who sign up. So ya better hurry if you want one of these awesome second annual collectible T-shirts. We are only charging $30, so there is no fanfare, no belt buckles and no whining.
