Join us in August for the 7th annual Angry Owl Ultramarathons!
RETURNING RUNNERS: No crucial details have changed. If you've run with us before, then you already know what to expect. Welcome back.
WHAT: Angry Owl as a running party. We have 5 different races over the weekend. 24 hour, 12 hour, or 6 hour runs over a flat one-ish mile loop. Think of these timed runs like an elementary school jog-a-thon for grown ups (snacks included).
Runners who register will for the timed runs will have that amount of time to run as many miles as they can around our one-mile loop. Runners can take breaks, naps, leave the park, etc. We will record the amount of laps completed in the selected time frame.
