PACKET PICKUP
Start Line
The race will begin in the 700 block of Commercial Street in front of Mulready's Pub. Roads will be closed off to traffic until shortly after the race begins.
Course Information
The course will be released closer to the event date. As flooding is an unforseeable obstacle, we reserve the rights to make any last minute changes. Details will be made clear as we get closer to the date.
Finish Line
The race will end in the 10 block of W 8th Avenue just around the corner from where we started. New this year, Lap the Lakes will be partnering with the Downtown Emporia Bar Association's beer festival to provide a more enjoyable finish to a long day.
Hydration/SAG
Water and food will be available to riders at designated checkpoints. We encourage you to have a support team for more nuanced assistance as we have limited capabilities of pulling a rider off the course. Drop bags available to full distance riders at the halfway point free of charge.
