The Ashtabula Distance Runners Club Board of Directors is pleased to announce the creation of a new ADR Club race.

The Run for Your Life Endurance Challenge will be held Sunday October 20, 2024, at 6 PM at the Donahue Center, 2924 Donahue Drive in Ashtabula Township.

This event is open to the public and will also complete the training by participants who are part of ADR’s Run for Your Life fall program.

This is a free race for 2024 ADR members, $10 for non-members. Registration is available only in-person on the day of the event from 5 pm to 5:45 pm. We will have waiver forms on hand.

The course is (about) a 0.45-mile lap and the idea is to see how many laps you can complete in 30 minutes. Walking is permitted. After the start, we will let you know what the time is at each lap completed and will make an announcement when the 30 minutes is done.

No awards, no premium, no overall or age group places. This is meant to be a fun race to participate in and have fellowship while encouraging our Run for Your Life participants too!

All ADR members who complete the Run for Your Life Endurance Challenge – meaning you are walking and/or running when the 30 minutes are done – will receive 8 Grand Prix points. The race also counts toward completing a race in the 2024 ADR Grand Prix Series.

Non Club members – $10 cash or checks only payable to Ashtabula Distance Runners Club. Please try to have exact change if possible, if paying cash.

If you’re not an ADR member, sign up now for 2024 ADR Membership for $20 ($25 for family membership) and your entry in the Run for Your Life Endurance Race is free.

Membership also includes discounts for the Bridge 2 Bridge Half Marathon and 5K and the Jingle Bell 3 Mile races later this year.

2024 ADR Membership is available at: http://ashtabuladistancerunners.org/membership/

Hope to see you there!
