Intro

Established in 2024, the NEO24 (Northeast Ohio 24-hour run) is the race that succeeds the very popular NorthCoast 24 (NC24) that existed in Cleveland from 2009-2019 and was held annually at Edgewater Park in the City of Cleveland, Ohio. Many of the people who put on the NC24 are now associated with the NEO24, including the talented Dan Horvath who was the RD for the NC24 from 2009-2015. Your race team is extremely excited to bring back this iconic race to NE Ohio for runners of all abilities. The race is for runners, by runners. We intend for the race to be INCLUSIVE and suitable for someone looking to complete their first 24-hour event (or running as long as they like) or for a seasoned ultrarunning veteran seeking to set a personal record. The aid station will be staffed by experienced ultra runners who know how to cater to the needs of endurance athletes.

Runners will traverse a loop that is roughly one mile (the course will be measured and certified by a USATF representative in March) covering as many miles as possible within the 24-hour time limit. Runners may elect to run any amount of time or distance that they wish. The clock starts at 8 am on Saturday, September 14th, and will stop at 8 am on Sunday, September 15th. The overall winners will be those who cover the most distance within the 24-hour time limit.

We on the organizing committee sincerely hope that all runners enjoy the NEO24 to its fullest. Please let us know how we can help you enjoy it more!
