Description

Once again leading into Veteran’s Day, Steve will be running/jogging/walking for 22 hours straight, representing the 22 veterans per day who commit suicide in the U.S.  You're welcome to come join him for a lap, an hour, or whatever you're comfortable with. Beyond timing the full 22 hours, this is an unofficial self-timed and self-paced event open-house style.  Participants are able to join at the time they choose and participate for the distance or time that they wish.  The gains over our operating costs from the registration fees collected will be donated to locate groups who work with veterans to provide them support and community.

Please indicate in your registration your anticipated arrival time and level of participation so that we can appropriately staff our registration and be on the lookout throughout the entire 22 hour event.  The loop we're doing at Heritage Park is a flat paved path, so if you're adverse to hills, no worries.

Full disclosure to the runners: Steve's pace will be the fastest at the beginning of the event (Noon - expected 5PM), but will be paced to only be around 12-14 minute miles to have endurance for 22 hours.

Full disclosure to the walkers: Steve's pace will start dropping after about 5 hours (5PM) but will still be a fast walk until night time.  The final hours of the event on Saturday morning have typically been a slow and fatigued walk.
