Fleet Feet Chico Upcoming Events

  

 

 

Offered twice a year! Summer and Winter

How does the relay work?

With your team of 4 you will decide what order you and your runners will run.

Each runner will start my running a mile (see route) and upon return you will "slam" a cold beer!  Once your beer is done, the next runner will start.

Can you skip the beer? Yes, but a min will be added to your team's time.

First team to have all 4 runners finish their mile and beer wins!

Other Categories:
Best holiday attire

All race times will be verified, age graded and uploaded by the race director the week after each race.

 

What is age grading?

Age grading is a way of analyzing running performance relative to your age and gender. It is based on world record race time data and attempts to estimate the best possible time an athlete can run a certain distance based on their age and gender. By using age grading this “levels” the playing field, allowing older or younger runners to be able to compete equally against those in their 20’s-40’s.

When your race is age graded you will receive a score. At the end of the challenge each of your 4 scores will be added up to give you a final score.

• All who complete the challenge will receive a limited-edition custom zipper hoodie from Upper Park Clothing ($50.00 value)

• Cost to participate $25.00 per runner.

• Must be registered by February 28th, 2025, to qualify for this year’s challenge
