Annual IARC Runners Celebration Event 2024!
Annual IARC Runners celebration event 2024!
An invitation-only event is scheduled on September 14th to honor the achievements of IARC run/walk community members. Attendance will be capped at the first 90 individuals. Invitations will be allocated based on the subsequent criteria, with any event occurring between September 2023 and August 2024 considered:
Participants who complete a full official ultra-marathon, marathon, or triathlon event will secure entry for themselves and one guest.
Those who finish an official half marathon can bring a plus one, but this is contingent on availability due to a set cutoff limit. Historically, only a limited number of plus ones have been allotted for this category.
Individuals who accomplish an official 10K are invited, subject to capacity restrictions. Participating in multiple official 10Ks will enhance the chances of securing a spot.
Individuals who complete our IARC shore-to-shore hike will be eligible and ranked above a half-marathon event.
To accommodate participants who may not be able to complete a half marathon before June 2024, a half marathon weekend event is planned for June 1st, 2024. Participants can complete the half marathon distance as a group during this event.
Runners who undertake multiple half marathons will receive a higher ranking, while those who favor 10Ks can increase their likelihood by participating in multiple events. The winners of the 2024 Winter and Summer Challenges will automatically earn a qualification for the event (limitations apply), and early qualifiers will be given priority over those who qualify later.
It should be noted that IARC Color run 10Ks will not be considered as qualifiers. However, official virtual half marathons (supported by medals as proof) can be utilized as qualification criteria. Transferring a qualified slot to another individual will not be an option. In instances where a qualified individual is unable to attend, the subsequent eligible person will be granted that slot.
Feel free to contact your coaches for assistance with training. Attaining qualification early will enhance the likelihood of receiving an invitation. Make sure not to miss out on this thrilling event!
