Conquer the Wall Endurance Challenge : Williamson, WV
This timed endurance event offers two duration formats, a 47 hour event and a 35 hour event, held on a flat, paved 2.05 mile loop along the West Williamson flood wall and the Southern West Virginia Community and Technical College campus. The course is open to traffic and runs past small subdivisions and apartments.
Entries include individual solo runners and relay teams of two or three. Teams swap an ankle bracelet timing tag between members to accumulate team laps. Participants must wear the ankle bracelet on the right leg at all times and are advised to wear it over clothing for reliable timing. When a runner reaches 50 miles and crosses the timing mat, they may reverse direction on the loop.
The event supports rucking with a required ruck weight of 25 pounds; rucks are weighed before the race, every six hours, and after the race. Awards include belt buckles and other finisher items for mileage thresholds and special awards for top male and female mileage in each duration.
On-site amenities include a main aid station with water, electrolyte drinks, pickle juice, and food ranging from on-the-go snacks to hot meals and vegan options. Camping and limited indoor lodging are available at the college with reserved cot options and a small number of indoor spots. The event is limited to 250 participants and is organized by the Tug Valley Road Runners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
