Overview
The Virginia Beach Distance Races are being put on for the express
purpose of giving runners a chance to run PR's. The course is
flat with aid every 2.3 miles leaving the runner free to
concentrate on running their race.
The 100k was set up so runners can run a fast 100k also to potentially qualify for either
the Spartathlon in Greece, requiring a 10:30 or better time. Or
for the USA national team.
Relay: For relay teams, the team captain will register the team. Relay entry can be teams of 2 to 4 members .
No Pacing Allowed by non-competitors!
