Countdown to One! Last Man Standing (Dresden)
This running event takes place on a 1 mile loop in Dresden, NY, with the same start and finish for each mile. Participants run successive single-mile legs and must meet a time limit for each mile to remain in the event; failure to complete a mile within its allotted time results in elimination.
The initial sequence of mile cutoffs is:
- first mile: 15 minutes or under
- second mile: 13 minutes or under
- third mile: 11 minutes or under
- fourth mile: 10 minutes or under
Completing those four miles within the cutoffs awards a bronze pin to attach to the finisher medal. The next set of four miles uses cutoffs of 9 1/2, 9, 8 1/2 and 8 minutes for the silver pin; the following four use 7 1/2, 7, 6 1/2 and 6 minutes for the gold pin. If needed to determine a last person standing, each subsequent mile time requirement will be reduced by 30 seconds.
There is a two minute separation between each leg. If a participant completes a mile faster than the cutoff, they may use the interval to rest, stretch or refuel. All participants receive a finisher medal; pins are awarded according to the last category completed. Top male and top female finishers receive a bottle of Bravery Wine (21+ only).
Location: 88 Main Street, Dresden, NY 14441, US. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
