Join us for a fun running challenge!  No matter how long you think you might last in the challenge, come out for a run at Kennesaw Mountain. You can go for a run of your choosing before or after participating in the challenge, continue to run the challenge loop to watch/heckle those still running, or simply hang out at the park gate and watch each loop’s finish.  Bagels and beverages will be provided at the start/finish (park gate).

Parking is at Northwest Exterminating - 830 Kennesaw Ave. We will walk up to the start/finish at the park gate.

Challenge Rules

  • Each participant will receive a wristband prior to the start. They will relinquish their wristband when out of the challenge.
  • At 8am we will run the 0.8 mile challenge loop together so everyone will know the route.  Start at the park gate on Kennesaw Ave.
  • Every loop thereafter the last person to complete the loop will be out of the challenge
  • 1 minute after the last person finishes a loop, the next loop will begin.  
  • Runners must be in the starting box at least 10 seconds prior to starting the next loop or they will be out of the challenge.
  • Loops will continue until there is 1 person left.
  • If there is a tie for last person to complete a loop, both runners will be removed.
  • Depending on the number of participants, the last 2 people to complete the loop will be out (to be announced prior to starting a loop).
  • Last person in the challenge receives a special prize!
