Kid’s Fun Runs

There will be three kid’s runs for children age 13 and under:

1. 50 meter “final stretch” run for kids age 5 and under
2. 1/4 mile loop around the field
3. 1/2 mile loop around the field

All participants will receive a ribbon and popsicle at the finish. The races will not be timed. Parents are welcome to run with their children. All spectators are strongly encouraged to cheer the kids on.

5k Cross County Race

The 5k will be a cross country style race around Cobb’s Hill Park. Most of the race will be on grass and trails with some short stretches on pavement (see the course map below for more detail). The course will be marked with brightly colored flags and there will be several marshals on course to help runners.

The 20th Edition of the Tour de Pain

Many years ago, the Tour de Pain was born out of the age-old question of “what would happen if I just keep racing?” Now in its 20th edition, the Tour de Pain has been enlightening Rochester area runners for decades. If you’re looking for glory, then this isn’t the race for you. If you’re looking for pain, then this my friend, is the race for you.

The Tour will be held as part of the final IEXC race on August 25th. Immediately following the 5k race participants will complete a 1 mile race and then a 400 meter race. Might there be some special, painful surprises to commemorate 20 years of Pain? Your journey to enlightenment begins with a single click.

To register for the Tour de Pain, you must also register for the August 25th 5k race.
