Welcome to the inaugural King of the Mountain 4K! This race IS GOING TO HAPPEN!!! There will be many safety measures put into place and the State Park is excited to host all of us. This July, do you have what it takes to be King or Queen of the Mountain?
King of the Mountain & Queen of the Mountain, is a new race at Monte Sano State Park. The race will start at the top of closed Bankhead road and run down to the bottom and straight back up (242 ft of gain over 2 kilometers). We will track the split between the start at the top of the mountain, split at the bottom of the mountain, and finish time. We were inspired by the mountain stages of the Tour de France and the awarding of the polka dot jersey! Make your mark as Queen or King of the Mountain!
Race day packet pickup will be held at the park starting at 6:45am.
This race will be set up in waves of 25 people spread out every 5 minutes to ensure we can maintain proper social distancing protocol. You will be able to select your wave/time. Please ensure that if you are registering to run with a group of friends or family that you all select the same wave.
The race shirt will be a short sleeve tri-blend shirt. ALL participants will receive an awesome finisher medal.
Awards will be given for the following categories (male & female): The runner with the fastest descent, fastest ascent and fastest overall time!
