Gearhead Endurance Challenge
From: Oct 18th, 2014 @ 7:00 am To: Oct 18th, 2014 @ 7:00 pm | < Previous Page |
This event is one of a kind that will consist of 30 minute intervals for 12 hours. Participants will run a 2.5 mile loop every 30 minutes. The challenge is designed to encourage participants to achieve a distance they may not think they could do and to push themselves to do more than thought possible. You may run one loop, 2.5 miles, or as many as you can in 12 hours up to 60 miles!
Example: If you complete the 2.5 mile course in 25 minutes, you get a 5 minute rest before the next 30 minute interval begins. If you don’t make the 30 minute cut off you will have to wait until the next half hour to start your next lap.
All participants must start at 7am, you may run as many laps as you feel comfortable, then leave and come back later in the day to run a few more laps during the 12 hour time limit. We recommend headlamps and/or flashlights for those who will be running after dark.
This is a great opportunity to get in long miles, fully aided with water, snacks, and a bathroom!
Also, Striding the Blast band will play at 4pm, and Snowie the snowcone mobile will be there from 5pm to 7pm!
A huge thank you to the ASU Dance team and cheer squads who will be volunteering for the event! ASU mascots HOWL and Scarlet will also make a special appearance from 4-6pm.
