Freed to Run Challenge

RACE DESCRIPTION: The course will be a 5k out and  back loop on the beautiful and tree lined asphalt trail along the Cecil Field Recreational Trail that will loop back into the area that we call " Tent City" where everyone will have their tents lined up along the route for easy access to your gear. All distances will follow along the same route for their individual events.

12/6/3 Hour Distances:  Run/walk as many 5k loops in the alloted time frame for each event 

5k Ultra: This is a unique challenge where each participant runs the 5k loop beginning at the top of the hour, you will then begin the next 5k distance at the top of the next hour regardless of when you finished the last loop and continue for 10 consecutive hours to equal a 50k distance. You have to be finished with your previous loop in the hour limit or you will be considered a DNF- Did not finish.

12 hour relay: You can have up to 4-6 teammates and can run in any order you want with no restrictions on how many loops each individual runner accumulates, it is up to the team captain to communicate with each teammate and ensure that each teammate has signed a waiver to participate. 

All participants will receive custom made medals and shirts as well as overall top 3 awards for each event and distance and if enough participants there will be age group awards for the 5k distances for the top 3 with at bare minimum at least 1st place Age Group winner for every 10 year age groups.  We also have special awards that we will randomly give out as well and the HIGHLY coveted Slow A$$ award for the DFL peeps.
