We wish to thank the following

for their wonderful support of 

The Rim Country Challenge



AWARDS PRESENTATION:

  • Awards will be presented to the first overall male and female finishers of the Half Marathon and 5K.

  • Awards will be presented to the first three male and female finishers in each age division.

  • Certificates will be given to all Young Athlete participants.

GENERAL INFORMATION:

  • The climate in October can be pretty chilly in the morning. Warm-up clothing would be advisable up until start time. The temperature will rise to a comfortable level for running.

  • The elevation in Payson is 5,000 feet so if you are not used to higher elevation it might be advisable to arrive a day or two early to get acclimated.

  • Water and portable toilets will be positioned along the course and by the Start/Finish line.

  • There are several places along the course where spectators can watch the runners go by.  The hill called “The Challenge” from McLane Road to the top of the hill by the Airport would be a good spot. Anywhere along the Home Stretch would be a good spot to cheer the runners on.

  • Results will be posted near the Green Valley Park finish line after the race and on the WEB the day after the race.
