Uncle Clyde’s Run and Slide
March 1, 2025 @ 11:00 am – 2:00 pm
Uncle Clyde’s Run and Slide
MOST LAPS WINS!…OH, AND IT’S A RELAY RACE!
The beauty of Uncle Clyde’s Run & Slide is in its simplicity. Teams complete as many up-down relay laps as they can on Purgatory’s tubing hill in 90 minutes. It sounds ridiculous, possibly strenuous and undoubtedly fun.
Team up with your best buddy for this tag-team style race. We will have male, female, and coed divisions for adult teams, as well as race categories for kids and parent/child teams. Teams must consist of two people in order to compete, but we will also allow three-person teams (like mom plus two kids) if you are just out for fun, not prizes and glory.
Two Heats:
We have a 60-minute heat beginning at 11am and a 90-minute heat at 12 noon. The 60-minute heat is recommended for kids, families, and less competitive folks. The 90-minute heat is recommended for anyone who wants the full suffer-fest.
No elbow-throwing in the 60-minute heat. No elbow-throwing in the 90-minute heat either, but we will permit some friendly shake-n-bake.
