I am leaning heavily towards organizing a FA 50K of the Oil Creek 100 course this February. Currently, my plan is the last Saturday in February, the 27th. I would like to start/finish near Titusville Middle School and the grocery store on the corner. Exact meeting place TBA later. Blue Canoe Brewery to refuel after the run. Starting time: sunrise is at 6:57am so I am leaning towards a 7am or 7:30am start. Course: follow the official Oil Creek 50K/100K/100M course. Please use this thread to express your interest or offer any suggestions! Nick |

I am just starting to do some walking and maybe even a little running; I was wondering if there is something around a 25K that could take place on that day as well? |

I like the 50K idea and will pencil it in. NEO Trail is behind it! As far as a 25K you can run 2 loops of what was loop 4 for the OC 100. About 7+ miles per loop there are other options as well. With any FA run lots of options its up to you. Bob Combs |

It is the distance. 50K is a lot for me on trails. February could be brutal. I would like to go, but I do not feel I am ready for 50K. Is there a shorter loop route, that starts and ends back where we want to be? Is there maps? |

Stryder1 - If you do the "inner loop" and turn around at the Miller Farm Rd. bridge to head back to the start/finish it is approx. 14 miles. Maps can be found here: http://www.neotrail.org/maps.htm http://www.oilcreek100.org/Home/course |
