About the Event
Nielson Challenge Details
The Nielson Challenge takes place at North Monument Valley Park, located at W Fontanero Street & Culebra Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80903. The race starts promptly at 8:00 A.M. and the start line closes at 8:05 A.M.
Race Information
This is a 2-mile race held on the first Saturday of each month. Each participant runs against a handicap generated based on their previous results from the last two years. Your first race will establish your base time, which will help compute future handicap times using an algorithm designed to favor beginner and slower runners.
The Nielson Challenge not only helps beginners track their improvement but also provides experienced runners with a reliable indication of their fitness level month-to-month.
Awards
At each race, the participant who improves the most from their handicap earns a Nielson Challenge shirt, generously sponsored by Michael Schenk of EON Studios in Colorado Springs.
Registration
Online registration is required, and it closes at 5:00 PM the evening before the race. The registration fee is $0.00.
