H+P WHAT GOES UP, MUST COME DOWN

Welcome to our latest free club event: H+P What Goes Up, Must Come Down!

The Premise:

• Race a max effort 3K with a net uphill
• Follow that up with racing a max effort 1K with a net downhill
• Individual event results will be posted for each distance with social media props for winners and AG leaders (hint: the 1K will also provide a nice boost to your rankings profile)

When:

• Anytime from Jan 15-30th
• We'll keep this one virtual for now with the possibility of doing it as a group depending on how COVID goes

Timing:

• This will be done with a GPS watch and the Strava segments
• Make sure to join the H+P Strava Group, and turn your activity to PUBLIC
• As always make sure to scout the segments, start early, end late etc.

The Courses

• The H+P Must Go Up 3K Course
• The H+P Must Come Down 1K

Rules:

• The two segments can be done in any order
• They must be completed within the same run
• Any rest between segments under 1 hour in duration is acceptable
• Suffer as much as humanly possible

The 5K PB Challenge:

• Added incentive: If your 3K time + your 1K time doubled is less than your 5K PB, you get a prize- the NEW H+P Aviator Sunglasses!
• If you have achieved this, e-mail or DM us with a link to your 5K PB and your 3K + 2x1K time!
• This will not be published as a 5K time in the rankings page

That's it- a fun reason to light it up in the New Year while you prime for bigger spring races. Let's go! #cantwontstop
