Organiser's Description
The King of Pain 10-Miler
Presented by The Glastonbury River Runners Club
In 2004, a legend was born. The King of Pain is the toughest road race in the history of Glastonbury and, as anyone who has run it knows, it lives up to its name. The course offers breathtaking South Glastonbury orchard scenery, along with hill, after hill, after hill. As a bonus, we scheduled the race smack-dab in the middle of a frigid New England winter. No extra charge. And you’ll be pretty sore after you finish, but you’ll walk away with bragging rights that will last all year long.
Register quick. The field is strictly limited, and all of the clinical masochists in the state want in. Course will be open to traffic, so please use caution.
Race will benefit Achilles CT and Sunshine Kids.
Where: Hopewell School,1068 Chestnut Hill Rd, South Glastonbury, CT 06073
Parking: Spaces available at Hopewell School. Additional Parking is available at lots across New London Tpke. Absolutely NO PARKING at the fire station. Please carpool if possible.
When: Sunday, February 11, 2024. 9AM sharp. Snow Date will be Sunday, February 18, 2024.
Cost: $45 for individuals through 1/14/24, and $50 thereafter.
You get: Chip timing, long-sleeve tech shirt (limited quantities and sizes- first 150 registrations only), post race food, and a solid sense of pride for crushing a bunch of Glastonburys toughest hills.
Awards: The top male female finishers will be crowned the 2024 King Queen of Pain with great pomp and circumstance. Age group recognition for first place male and female in 10 year age groups will be presented following the race.
Early Packet pickup will be at Soundrunner Glastonbury on Friday afternoon from 4-7 pm and Saturday morning from 10 am-1 pm and on race day starting at 8:00.
NO REFUNDS. Transfers on a case by case basis before on-line registration closes.
