Hardrock Hundred Media and Press Kit

In order to serve our Hardrock family—the runners, our volunteers, our local fans, and the families and friends of all—we have put together a set of guidelines and information for media and journalists who would love to share in our event, and share our event with their audience.

Our Press Kit contains background information, the week's schedule, as well as a summary overview of the run. Parking issues could shut down the Hardrock 100; you MUST follow our press/media rules. Thank you!

Hardrock Hundred Mile Endurance Run - Media Policy - Updated 3/20/24

Please note the important May 15 deadline. The USFS has updated their policies, and is requiring all media permit applications to be submitted at least 60 days in advance of the event. They've been very clear to us that no extensions will be granted, so if you're looking to join us this year, get yours in soon!
