RACE DETAILS...
Race: September 24-25, 2016. Races offered are 100K race walk, 100 mile centurion walk and a 100 mile relay. There is a 24 hour, 30 minute time limit. If you complete the 100 miles in under 24 hours you will become an American Centurion and will re- ceive a US Centurion number. As of August, 2015, only 80 people have ever walked 100 miles in under 24 hours on American Soil. To see the list, Please visit: http://www.ultrawalk.com/Centurion%20USA.html. The 100km race is the USATF Eastern Regional and the Niagara Association Championship and will be judged by USATF Racewalking rules. The centurion race will be judged using centurion guidelines. The race will be Sanctioned by USA Track & Field. The start will be by the northern pavilion and the loop will be walked counter clockwise. There will be nighttime lighting throughout the park during the night, however it would be advisable to bring an auxiliary lighting source.
Relays may have between 2-5 members. Relays will have a timing chip and that chip will be handed from one member to another. There is no set distance each member must complete, nor rules for order of rotation of members. Each relay member may do as much/little as they wish to do.
There are no refunds.
Location: Marvin Park, off Main Street located in scenic Owego, New York, USA. The start will be by the northern pavilion. Course: USA Track & Field certified fast and flat 1K loop. 1k=one loop on the roadway around the park. Total elevation gain/loss approximately 5 feet.

Race organizers will also provide water and sport drink, as well as volunteers to hand food and drinks to the competitors. A separate area for personal aid will be set up. Race organizers will not be able to provide volunteers for personal aid.
Records: This race will have adequate judges to be records eligible for the 100km Race Walk. Records can be set at intermediate distances as well but the meet organizers must be notified by September 10, 2016.
Judging: There will be USATF Certified Race Walk Judges that will judge the 100km event using Race Walking rules and they will also judge the 100 mile contestants using centurion rules (lifting violations only).

AWARDS & BANQUET
Awards: Awards will be presented to the top three male and female age group finishers in the 100K. Awards presented to the top three relay teams who successfully complete 100 miles. All athletes who successfully complete 100 miles under 24 hours will receive a unique and personalized award.
Banquet: The Awards Banquet will be held at the Pumpelly Estate, 44 Main Street, Owego, NY 13827. Doors will open at 5:00pm for dinner. Dinner will be served buffet style and will stay open until 5:50pm. Doors will open at 6:00pm for people who are only attend- ing the awards ceremony. Dessert will be served buffet style starting at 6:00pm. You are welcome to attend the awards ceremony without having dinner or dessert, attendance to the awards ceremony is free. Dinner and dessert costs $55 per person and dessert only is $20 per person. The menu is as follows:
Dinner: Chicken Speidies (a local specialty), pasta with alfredo or marinara sauce and meatballs (meatballs are separate for people with gluten sensitivity), beef tips, and house vegetables. Dessert will be lemon bars, trifles, and apple crisp. All food is homemade and prepared at Pumpelly Estate. Dave and I were married and had our reception here and know from experience that the food is fantastic!
All beverages will be a cash bar; $1.00 for non-alcoholic beverages and $3.00+ for alcoholic beverages. Because the food is prepared fresh and by hand and shopping must be done, we must have an accurate count of who will attend dinner/dessert. Therefore you must reserve your spot for dinner/dessert by September 10, 2016. We are hoping this will be a chance for competitors to sit, relax, refuel, and enjoy each other's company.
