The Clark 6-hour Classic is a USATF Sanctioned event.
This is a timed loop event being held on the varied and rocky terrain at Clark Reservation just outside Jamesville, NY. Clark is a beautiful park in CNY that most people do not get to see. It is also a very rocky and technical place to run while offering some great scenery.
The race will consist of a loop that is approximately 1.7 miles that covers smooth gravel pathways, dirt with little ankle breaker rocks to larger boulders that you will have to navigate your way around. You will start and finish each loop in the same spot at the end of the large parking lot.
You will be required after each lap to check in with the timer to ensure your lap was counted before heading out on the next lap. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!!
Race Details
Have you ever run a timed event? If not DON’T BE SCARED!!! There is no reason to be nervous about the idea of running for 6 hours…
Race starts at 8am and finishes promptly at 2pm. You will be running the exact same loop for the entire duration of the event while attempting to get in as many laps as you possible can within those 6 hours. You can run, walk, skip or crawl your way around for the entire 6 hours or any time less. If you feel like you can only run 1 hour you will stop after 1 hour. If you run for 1 hour and want to take a break for 4 hours and run the last hour that’s fine too!
However many laps you have completed by the end of the 6 hours, or when you decided to stop (whichever comes first) will be your finishing mileage and place. The runner with the most mileage by the end of the 6 hours will be declared the winner. NO PARTIAL LAPS WILL COUNT.
