BRAZIL 135 ULTRAMARATHON – JAN/17/2019    

Deixar um comentário

The BR135 was inspired “in concept and in spirit” by the Badwater 135 in Death Valley, California. The event includes five races simultaneously, split into two solo runs with different cut-offs as well as relay categories for two, three or four people. The BR135 had its inaugural running in 2006 with 10 competitors and only four finishers. It remains a small race with entry limited to between 67 and 77 runners in the main 48-hour event and a further 74 across the other divisions. Finishing the solo event in under 48 hours is included in the qualifying standards for entry into Badwater because it’s part of the Badwater World Cup, an international series of 135-mile races held in exotic locations under extreme conditions. The other two are Badwater itself and the Arrowhead 135 in freezing Minnesota, also in January

Deixar um comentário


The Avalon 50 Mile Benefit Run is coming up on it’s 40th Anniversary! Come over, see the buffalo, the incredible vista’s and experience YOUR ultimate challenge on Catalina Island.

Race weekend consists of two events- the 50 Mile Run and in it’s 2nd year, the Avalon 50K. The Avalon 50K (31 miles) runs a good portion of the traditional 50 Mile Run but will not run the out and back to Two Harbors, instead turning south at Little Harbor Overlook and heading back through Ben Wesson, Eagles Nest and up Middle Ranch Road to the finish in Avalon. You will experience the same great views, the commradarie, the tradition and the excitement of the 50 Mile – but just a bit less of it.

The 15th annual Arrowhead 135 will be Jan 28th to 30th, 2019

Deixar um comentário


The Arrowhead 135 is recognized in the book “The World’s Toughest Endurance Challenges” by Richard Hoad and Paul Moore as one of the 50 toughest races in the world. It is a human powered Ultra Marathon taking place in the coldest part of winter in the coldest city in the lower 48 states. Our average finish rate is less than 50%, the finish rate for new racers is much lower. 2014 finish rate was 35%.

135 miles Deep Winter across Northern Minnesota on rugged, scenic Arrowhead State Snowmobile Trail from Frostbite I-Falls to Tower, MN Fortune Bay Casino. Pick mode of transport at start: bicycle, ski or foot. This is our 14th year, beginning withƒ 10 entrants in 2005 to ~150 starters 2018, featuring some of the best winter ultra-athletes in the world.

Historically coldest gosh darn race anyplace even the Arctic, check average temps, virtually every year luck has us -30 to -40C/F, we have frostbite to prove it. Or it snows and is a sloppy mess! Arrowhead 135 is an organization of local folks dedicated to the promotion of human powered ultra-endurance events across beautiful Arrowhead Region of Northern Minnesota. Our Race Mission is fostering national and international amateur endurance sports such as winter-biking, skiing and trail running.

Goal of organization is to offer, fun, educational, yet challenging ultra-endurance event in extreme trail and weather conditions for economic and health benefit of communities in Northern Minnesota.

Race has costs for permits, insurance, T-shirts, awards, operational costs,etc. but we are hoping to minimize entry fees and break even. Any profits go to Special Operations Warrior Foundation Charity, providing college scholarships to children of US Spec Ops Soldiers killed and wounded, Together For Good providing short-term respite to children in need, and the Falls Food Shelf. We also contribute to snowmobile trail maintenance along the Arrowhead Trail.

Arrowhead Ultra 135 -Jan 28th to 30th, 2019

Deixar um comentário

The 15th annual AH135 will be Jan 28th to 30th, 2019. We will take race veteran apps starting 9-1-18 and rookie apps 10-1-18. Please make sure you have a qualifying race – see below. Our roster is limited to ~150 racers and fills quickly.

Gear check will be Jan 26th/27th. Please ensure you meet or exceed the qualifications listed below if you plan to race.

Completing one of the below accomplishments would typically qualify an entrant for this year’s Arrowhead Winter Ultra;

however, entry is not guaranteed. The race directors reserve the right to change the rules in the interest of safety and sportsmanship or for any reason deemed appropriate by the race officials. The race directors reserve the right to select entrants based on other important considerations, as well as due to the requirements of insurers, sponsors, the Minnesota State DNR and other regulatory
agencies.
Basically, we look for both endurance and cold weather experience. Below are general guidelines.
Qualifying activities for runners:
Completing a prior Arrowhead 135, Tuscobia 160 or similar race.
Finishing 100 mile foot race or completed multi-sport event, including a 100 mile run. A race in winter conditions improves your odds of being selected and surviving.
Qualifying activities for bikers:
Complete a prior Arrowhead 135, Tuscobia 160, Susitna, or similar race.
Finishing 24 hour bike race, with minimum of 100 miles completed for off-road, or 200 miles on road. A race in winter conditions improves your odds of being selected and surviving.
Qualifying activities for skiers:
Complete a prior Arrowhead 135, Tuscobia 160, or similar race.
Finishing a 24 hour ski race with a minimum of 100 miles completed.

There are lots of articles, stories, and photo albums from racers, reporters, and volunteers. Go read them all.
