About this race
Age-Handicapped 4-Miler is an annual race held every July 4th to celebrate Independence Day and the club's founding. Unlike a standard race, it features a staggered start based on age and gender, aiming to have all participants finish closer together.
The "winner" is the first person to physically cross the finish line, regardless of their net running time.
The race uses specialized handicap tables based on national age-group records.
Race Director(s): Peter Feltman
