You must register to participate. No exceptions. Register early because this event fills up fast every year.
The event runs 8:00 am - 6:00 pm sharp. You have 10 hours to complete as many repeats as you can. There will be finisher awards for everyone who sticks it out for 10 hours, and one extra special award for the self-identifying male, female, and non-binary runner who climbs the most! You must be back at home base before 6:00:00pm for the lap to count.
You must sign in when you get there and sign out after you are finished. If you leave the course, you must let a race director (Julie or Dustin) know. This is part of our responsibility to make sure everyone is safe and accounted for on the mountain.
HOW DOES THIS EVENT WORK?
The Whitewash climb is a gnarly, technical climb with 500' of gain in approximately 0.5 miles. Each out-and-back is 0.5 miles up, 0.5 miles down, or 1 mile (ish) total. At the top, you will see a turnaround at the 500' mark. There is nothing to grab, no bib punch, no person to check in with. Each time you summit, run around the turnaround object (behind it) and head back down to the start/finish. Check in with a volunteer, who will count the lap for you.
Each lap = 500' climbed.
