Toughest Alive Hourglass : Yakima, Washington
The Hourglass event in Yakima is a descending-clock endurance format held at Franklin Park in Yakima, Washington. It is a single tour stop on the Toughest Alive Tour scheduled for Sunday, November 8, 2026. Adult and youth entry fees are listed as $79 and $29 respectively, before fees.
The format uses fixed distances with a shrinking clock: the first round is 30 minutes, then 29 minutes, then 28 minutes, and so on. Each round begins from a shared basecamp where participants regroup, refuel, and decide whether to continue.
Distances and requirements by division:
- Walkers and ruckers: one mile each round.
- Runners: two miles each round.
- Hybrid: two miles plus ten judged burpees each round.
- Carry: half mile carrying 50 pounds for men or 35 pounds for women each round.
- Youth division: details provided separately.
Divisions listed include Walk, Ruck, Run, Hybrid, Carry, and Youth. A kids division is available and has registration requirements distinct from the adult divisions. Registration for the event closes Thursday, November 5; some prices increase after September 30.
The event emphasizes repeated looped rounds, a single shared clock, and a communal basecamp where participants support one another between rounds. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
