Ultra-Distance Running Event in Wadsworth
The Rip n Run XL is a long-distance trail event taking place in October. Starting from Wadsworth, the event offers two significant distances for runners looking to progress beyond standard ultramarathon lengths. The course takes participants past local landmarks such as the pike, potentially providing views of the sunrise depending on the pace of the runner.
Participants can choose from the following distances:
- 40 miles: This route features approximately 5,800 feet of total elevation gain.
- 80 miles: A double-loop option with a total time limit of 28 hours to complete.
The event provides support throughout the course with four designated checkpoints for the 40 mile distance. For those tackling the 80 mile distance, the event headquarters serves as a fifth checkpoint. The second two checkpoints are located indoors, offering participants access to permanent toilet facilities and shelter from the weather.
Food services are included as part of the event. On-course support includes soup at the headquarters checkpoint for the longer distance, and hot food is provided for all participants at the event headquarters upon completion of their run. The event is open to individuals aged 18 and over. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
