Death by 5k Oregon

Death by 5k is returning to Oregon!

Taking place at Elijah Bristow State Park, RunStrong Event's signature 24 hour challenge, Death by 5k requires participants to run ten 5ks starting every 2.5 hours, for 24 hours. The first 5k starts at 8 am, and subsequent 5ks start at 1030, 1, 330, 6, 830, 11, 130, 4, and 630 am. Participants need to be present at the start of each 5k, and have that 5k finished prior to the start of the subsequent 5k. This challenge is designed to test participants mentally and physically with physical fatigue, sleep deprivation, and running in the dark. (Headlamps, hand lights, or some other form of illumination will be required) all while having a great time in a beautiful location.

In between each 5k, participants will be able to car camp, or to put up tents in the group camping area which will also serve as the race HQ.

Hot food will be served at 830 am, 130 pm, 630 pm, 1130 pm and 430 am, along with plenty of snack food available throughout the event. Drinks provided will be water and mixed gatorade..

Participants will receive an event shirt and some great additional swag. Finishers will receive one of our coveted coffin awards and the pride that comes with surviving.

Registration will be limited to 150 participants. After that, a waitlist will be enabled and we will open spots if/when they become available only.
