From the organizer
Can you go the distance?
Come prove it in this "last-person standing" race. Every 15 minutes, participants will start a 1-mile road/sidewalk segment. If you make it back to the start/finish line before the next 15 minute horn goes off, you are still alive and go for another segment, if not, your race is over. How long can you endure?
This year's 4th Annual race features a point-to-point route starting at Zanesville Middle School and run along the paved and partially shaded Joe's Run Trail. The turnaround point is 1 mile away from the starting line. Both ends of the course will have designated rest areas stocked with drinks and snacks to enjoy while participants rest until the next 15 minute interval begins.
This event is presented by Zanesville Soccer Boosters, a non-profit 501(c)(3) supporting the Zanesville High School Boys & Girls and Zanesville Middle School Boys & Girls soccer teams.
