Conquer the Wall Endurance Challenge - Williamson, WV
Conquer the Wall is an endurance running event held on March 12, 2027 at the Southern West Virginia Community and Technical College in Williamson, WV. The event offers 47 hour and 35 hour formats on a flat, paved 2.05 mile loop along the West Williamson flood wall and college grounds. The course allows a change of direction after 50 miles when runners cross the timing mat.
Entries are available for individuals (solo) and relay teams of two or three. Relay teams use an ankle bracelet timing tag that teammates exchange when changing runners; team captains pay for team registration and teams are identified by a team name. Participants wear an ankle bracelet timing strap on the right leg for lap counting; wearing the bracelet over pants is recommended.
Rucking is an optional category with a recommended ruck weight of 25 lb; rucks are weighed before the race, at regular intervals, and after the event. Awards and finisher items include belt buckles for certain mileage thresholds and special awards for top mileage in each category.
On-site amenities include a main aid station with food and hydration options, porta potties at each end of the flood wall, cots and limited indoor lodging, camping near the course, parking on campus, and facility Wi-Fi. Volunteer shifts are planned in four hour blocks and volunteers receive a long sleeve shirt. The event is limited to 250 participants and registration closes March 11, 2027.
