You have to get to mile 19.8 by 10:29 am or else they'll make you quit. It seems like a really early cutoff time. I got there at 10:40 am 11 minutes over. There were several runners behind, about 80 runners didn't end up finishing. It would of been nice to at least do a 50k if they are going to force me to quit so early. I won't do another North Face event because of this experience. Also the finish line food wasn't great it was better than nothing. The aid stations also seemed to be lacking some of the food that was stated to be there even though I am always prepared for that situation. I also asked the aid station previously before the one where they made me quit about cutoff times and they didn't have any knowledge about that. The scenery was nice.
