E.T. Full Moon Midnight Marathon, 1/2, 10K and 51K

Call Directions Website

E.T. Full Moon Midnight Marathon, 1/2, 10K and 51K August 20-21, 2016 Running along the fringe of the mysterious Area 51, this stretch of highway (375) has an overwhelming number of reported UFO sightings.

So much so, that in 1996 the federal government officially named highway 375 the "Extraterrestrial Highway". The ET Highway has become a gathering place for UFO enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. With elevations ranging from roughly 4000-5600 feet, the high desert will enchant you with gorgeous vegetation, surrounding mountains, and stunning vistas. An additional treat is the cooler temperatures. Rachel, NV is generally 15 degrees cooler than the Las Vegas Valley; coupled with a midnight run, temperatures should be in the 60's in August!

September 19- 20: Devil Day and Night Marathon, 1/2, 10K and 5K just outside of Las Vegas!

We will have 3 “groups” of runners, in limits of 50. These groups are “Saturday morning”; “Saturday evening”; and “Sunday morning”. I've diligently worked with the permitting agency to fight for our race, and I feel confident in our covid plan's final approval. Calico Racing is the same organization who recently hosted ET on August 1.

Spaces are very limited, so secure your place today!

ET 2020: Course Updates to the Live Event!

ALL races will start and finish at the Little A'le'Inn.

**Please check out the website with updates in GREEN**

**The course change was made for the following reasons:

1- The common start/ finish line for all races eliminates the need to ride the bus to return to your cars. You can now drive and park right at the start/ finish line for all distances.

2- The contracted bus is still available for purchase and will take you to/ from the start/ finish line. The bus will be sanitized in between use, and will have less contacts, as it will only be used by those purchasing the bus ticket.

3- When you complete your race, you can leave as quickly as you wish vs. waiting for the bus, reducing gathering numbers.

4- Reduced gear bag contacts/ commingling. You are encouraged to keep your gear bag in your car. For those on the contracted bus, you will place your gear bag directly on the tarp (only for bus riders). Ample space will be provided to separate bags. No volunteer contact of the bags.

5- Chip timing start/ finish for all distances. This will allow us to further break down starting groups into smaller sizes as needed, and will be determined closer to race day in cooperation of guidelines as of race date.

6- We expect the 2020 race to be much smaller than usual.

7- Overall, it gives organizers the flexibility to adapt more easily to an ever changing protocol, keep runners, volunteers, and staff safe, and provide participants the ability to run the event without the requirement of the bus.

8- A VIRTUAL RACE has been added for those who would like to "join us" without attending in person.
