Hill of a Race
The Hill of a Race is an obstacle course event taking place at Ewing Park II in Bloomington, Illinois. The event features a standard course distance of 3 miles and offers several participation formats to accommodate different types of racers. Participants can choose between competitive divisions, age-based categories, or recreational waves.
The event includes the following options:
- 3 Miles Competitive (Men and Women)
- 3 Miles Master's Division (Ages 40+)
- 3 Miles Recreational Waves
- Endurance Challenge (Time-limited multi-lap format)
The Endurance Challenge is a specific format where contestants determine how many laps they can complete within a four-hour window. Participants in this division are permitted to bypass obstacle lines while moving through the recreational waves to maintain their pace. The winner of this category is decided by the total number of completed laps.
For those not participating in the timed endurance event or the competitive divisions, multiple recreational waves are available for friends and families. The competitive divisions are separated into men's and women's categories, with dedicated starts for those in the Master's division. All activities are centered within the grounds of Ewing Park II, specifically located at 1001 Ethel Pkwy. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
