These rules are meant to make your experience during any Steep Endurance event a positive one. Most of these are common sense type policies that you will see at any road race.

Be aware of general hazards on the course (roots, rocks, potholes, cars, etc.)
Staying on Course: Following the marked course is MANDATORY. There are sections of the course that are both single track trails and double track/farm roads. The course will be well marked with flags and signage.
Dropping from the Race: If runners or bikers intend to drop out of the race, they must do so (unless in case of emergency) by notifying one of the course marshals at various locations on the course. Failure to do so means for all intensive purposes that the participant is lost, activating search and rescue. Time that is spent searching for a participant will be billed to such participant.
Runners/bikers will be advised that the Race Director or course marshals may pull any participant from the race at any time for gross negligence of the above rules.
Absolutely No Littering! The race is completely on Norbrook Farm Brewery private property. Please respect that we are using it or the race. Failure to do so could jeopardize future events.
Race entries/bib numbers are not transferable–hence NO unofficial runners
The use of personal music devices is strongly discouraged at this race. To enjoy all that our race has to offer and for the safety of all participants, Steep Endurance encourages a headphone-free environment during the events of the Norbrook Farm Trail Festival. We believe your race experience and those around you will be greatly enhanced by leaving the headphones at home or in the car. Going headphone-free allows opportunities to develop camaraderie with your fellow runners and to enjoy everything the race has to offer. Plus, volunteers and spectators will be on course cheering you on and providing directions to help get you to the finish line. Participant safety is a a top priority for our events.
SMILE and enjoy the race! You get to have BEER when you finish!

All participants 21 and over will receive ONE FREE ticket with their registration for a choice of one of Norbrook’s hand crafted beers to use on the day of the event.
Specially designed finisher medal from Ragged Cuts
Awesome Swag from our sponsors
Awards for Top 3 podium in each event

June in Connecticut can be hot, but there’s always plenty of shade in the trails. Temps can warm into the 70’s/80’s during the day and cool to 50’s/60’s at night.
