Naturally Outdoors Endurance Race: 2Hr + 4Hr Run & Ruck
Pace yourself! Enter the Naturally Outdoors 2 & 4 Hour Endurance Race to put yourself to the test. With a 2.5 mile loop around Florence's Soccer Complex, this is a great course to set goals, show up, and challenge yourself. The winner of this event will COMPLETE the most laps around the course before the clock runs out.
We're adding a rucking division to this year's race! We've spoken with some community members who were very interested in this coming to life, so we're making it happen! Please contact us if there are any questions about this division. Required weight for men is 30lbs non-consumable, Required weight for women is 20lbs non-consumable, Required weight for 18 & under is 20lbs non-consumable.
