2008
CINCINNATI HILL CLIMB SERIES

The Cincinnati Hill Climb Series™, the most grueling sub-mile runs on the planet, returns to Cincinnati’s racing calendar on Sunday Nov. 2  Begun over 30 years ago by the Clifton Track Club, the oxygen-depleting sprints up the city’s steepest inclines are back for 2008.

"It’s two minutes of self-inflicted torture, and there's nothing the Geneva Convention can do about it!" said race director Doug Newberry, president of EventFund, LLC, referring to the average winning time for many of the shorter runs.

Hill series championship points will be awarded for each of four race events, with Straight Street as the finale. Races start at 9 a.m (unless noted otherwise) on four, consecutive Sundays in November.

Points will awarded to the top runners in each of five divisions – youth (12 and under), teen (13 through 17), men’s open, women’s open and masters (50 and over.)

Proceeds from this race series will benefit the Cincinnati Soap Box Derby

Entry forms for the entire hill series are available at local running stores or online

Registration fee for any of the individual races is $10, or $20 with a custom-designed race series T-shirt that you’ll want to wear to brag about your accomplishment.

Registration for the entire four-race series is priced at $40.

Runners are advised that our generous sponsor will provide plenty of liquids to facilitate recovery upon completion (or not) of the race, but participants should bring their own oxygen.
