4 Hour Warm Up at Shadyside
The Warm Up @ Shadyside is a four-hour endurance event held at the Shadyside Activity Center in Anderson, Indiana. This for-fun race serves as a practice session and introduction to endurance running. Instead of a traditional race format, participants run as a solo entrant or as part of a group to see how much distance they can complete within the four-hour time limit.
The event takes place on a modified Shadyside course. For this specific event, the regular route is run backwards. Participants have the option to use two different loop distances:
- 2.6 miles
- 1.5 miles
This is an untimed and unscored event. There is no official tracking of distance or results; participants are responsible for keeping track of their own time and mileage. A single clock at the site counts down the four hours to indicate when the session is over.
The gathering area is located in the grass near the parking lot by the pickleball courts. A central aid station provides water and Gatorade. The event features a tailgate and cookout atmosphere where the organizers provide a grill and food. Participants are encouraged to bring their own chairs, tents, snacks, and drinks to contribute to the social environment. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
