Mt. Ascutney Vertical Backyard

A "Last Person Standing" type of event. Each hour participants will ascend (and descend) 1209 vertical feet via a few different options. The race ends when there is only one person left. Come out for an afternoon or see just how much up and down your legs can handle before enjoying Thanksgiving dinner a few days later. Why 1209 feet? If anyone can make it 24 hours, they will have equaled the ascent from sea level to the top of Mt. Everest. Runners will have the ability to do three laps up the t-bar path (403 feet) or one lap up to a spot above a ski trail much higher on the mountain (1209 feet). We'll have one aid station at the bottom, with hot food available throughout the event. There will be spots to camp, along with access to water during the race. We will have the Ascutney Outdoors Center to use during the event which will be heated and have electricity and bathrooms. Much of the course is visible from the bottom, so it's a great spectator race, and racers will have endless views, throughout.
