Born to run is a one of a kind experience. The event takes place on a ranch in Los Olivos, California. Runners camp at the ranch for several days during the event. In the days leading up to the main races there are music, beer races and scavenger hunts and of course food and drinking. There are people selling all kinda of unique running and Born To Run items, a man doing real tattoos and an amazing Mexican food truck. The main event takes place on Saturday. This year was 10 miles, 50K, 100K and 100 miles. For 2015 there will be 10 miles, 30 miles, 60 miles, 100 miles and 200 miles. The course consists of two beautiful 10 mile loops all on the ranch. Both loops lead back into the camping area. Aide stations are accessible every few miles and were fully stocked. The trail was not very technical, completely runnable. There were however plenty of tough elevations, I ended up with about 7500 in ascent over my 100K. The experience and camaraderie were amazing. I only wish I didn't live across the country so I could go every year!
