The Backass Jackal Trail Marathon

This is the 14th year for the Backass Jackal Trail Marathon. This will be second in the five marathon series in consecutive days. This one is on a fair trail that is covered with foliage that will heat up like an oven as the day progresses.

The Backass Jackal Trail Marathon is the same as The Jackal Marathon that is run the day prior except it runs in the opposite direction.

The trail loop is 3.75 miles and the race will consist of running this loop 7x.
