Location: Base of the Auto Road on Route 16, between Jackson and Gorham NH

Parking: The logistics of racing up Mount Washington REQUIRE that all participants arrange their own rides down the mountain, prior to race day. Parking space at the summit of the mountain is limited.  Due to the high ratio of runners to parking spots, this event is only possible through racer carpooling and by prearranging your ride down. The road opens for support drivers to ascend at 6:30am and closes at 8am. It reopens for descent at approximately 12:30pm

Course details: 7.6 miles; 4,650 vertical gain; average grade of 12%, multiple lengths of 18% sustained, last 50 yards of course are 22%. Official timing ends at 3 hours and 5 minutes after the start (12:05 PM)

Awards: Awards will begin once the event timers return to the base area. PLEASE NOTE: Timers are the last to leave the summit. Lunch will be catered by Hart’s Turkey Farm of Meredith, NH and will include carved turkey w/dressing, cranberry sauce, gravy, whipped potatoes, butternut squash, tossed salad and rolls. A vegetarian option will be provided as well.
