Description

The Hawthorn Half-Day Relay & Ultra is an annual event held in Hawthorn Park, located just east of Terre Haute, IN. This year, it is scheduled for May 25, 2024, marking the 18th anniversary of the event. The event offers two main categories: a 6-hour event for both individual runners and teams of three, and a 12-hour race for individual runners, as well as team divisions (3-6 runners) and an ultra division (2 runners).

Participants aim to cover the maximum distance possible within the designated time frame. The race course consists of a 3.1-mile loop, primarily encompassing Hawthorn Park. Approximately 75% of the loop is comprised of trail terrain with rolling elevations, adding an element of challenge to the race.

Runners are provided with various refreshments during the event, including water, electrolyte drinks, and a selection of snacks such as pinwheels, fruit, and chips. Additionally, all participants are invited to enjoy a post-race baked potato bar, complete with a variety of toppings, during the awards ceremony.

The event features custom Finisher Medals for all participants, along with Age Group Awards for individual runners and Division Awards for teams. Swag includes a custom race shirt, and some additional surprises TBA!!
