The Fastest Mile in North Dakota
A one mile extravaganza! Our goal is to run the fastest men's and women's mile ever run on North Dakota soil. The event starts with the open community mile for any youth 12 and under and any parents wanting to run with their child, followed by the open heats for the most recreational runner/walker to the almost elite, and culminating with the elite heats, where we hope to see history made as we try lower the Cushman field record for the third time on the girls' side and the fourth consecutive time on the guys'.
Estimated finish times submitted at registration will be used to group runners into groups with similar abilities.
Proceeds from the event will go to support the RAGNARÖK ATHLETIC CLUB and the development of Track & Field in North Dakota.
