The 25 Hours in Frog Hollow is exactly what it sounds like — a full day plus one extra hour of riding, sleeping optional, fire-hanging mandatory. Zia Rides frames it as an end-of-season celebration more than a sufferfest, and that spirit shows: this is the kind of race where eating well and laughing with your crew counts as part of the event.
Home base is Frog Town, a camping hub set in the shadow of Gooseberry Mesa and Zion National Park just outside Hurricane. That's serious red-rock country — sandstone slickrock, desert air, and the kind of scenery that makes a 3 a.m. lap feel almost worth it.
