The Equalizer Run

Saturday, October 29th, 2011, 8:00am

Where: Gray’s Lake Park, Des Moines, IA

Timed Runs: 6 Hour, 12 Hour and 24 hour

Description: This event is designed for three purposes.

  • First, it will provide an opportunity for new and veteran runners to test themselves at an ultra distance.
  • Second, performances will be scored using an age/sex ‘equalizer’, providing the possibility of an overall victory to anyone who is normally competitive in their age group. Equalizers are determined based on age and gender. Overall awards will be distributed based on the total of actual distance plus the appropriate equalizer.
  • Third, everyone has fun, and we mean everyone!

Course Description: A 1.905 mile essentially flat loop, ligted asphalt path, circling Gray’s Lake with splendid views of downtown.

    I am a former competitor and a record holder at the event. It is well organized, very scenic, and overall a great time. However, I have not been able to return because the date has moved and it falls on the same day as the state cross country meet. I would jump at the chance to run again, please consider a date for a future year.
