Parking and the Recreation Passport
This race is held at a Michigan State Park, which requires a Recreation Passport, your year-round pass to Michigan’s great outdoors! Michigan residents can add it when renewing their license plate. Non-Michigan residents can purchase a daily or annual pass. Everyone can buy at the park entrance, but to save time on race day, we recommend taking care of it in advance. The link below has all your purchasing options.

Zero Waste
The event is a Leave No Trace event.
You will notice that instead of trash cans, we have a central Zero Waste Station: Ground Zero which is organized by Happy Planet Running. A team of their staff and our volunteers handle all of the waste produced by the event. Please bring all of your trash to "Ground Zero" where they will sort it and then weigh it all at the end to give us a sustainability report.
Post-Race Celebration
Goddesses, stick around post race for food and festivities! Our Epic staff and volunteers will be cooking up pancakes, breakfast burritos, and more for all race participants.
