Virgil Crest Ultras are 50 and 100 mile ultramarathons located in Virgil, N.Y. and are intended to provide endurance trail athletes an additional opportunity in the northeast. The event uses The Finger Lakes Trail sections spanning the Tuller Hill and Kennedy State Forests, paired with the mountainous terrain of Greek Peak Mountain Resort.
This year’s races will begin at 6 a.m. on Saturday, September 25, 2010, and will include a 50-mile race, a 100-mile race, and a 100-mile relay. Entry will open on February 4th, 2010, and be limited to the first 150 qualified entrants in both of the solo events. The 100 Mile Relay will be open to only the first 30 teams.
