Mile of Truth

RACE DETAILS

2024 USATF MASTERS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP EVENT
2024 PACIFIC ASSOCIATION/USATF ROAD GRAND PRIX EVENT

In order for prize money to be awarded, the Devil Mountain Run requires that a minimum of 12 competing runners participate in the heat. If the field is lower than 12, that heat will not qualify for prize money, but will still qualify for age group awards.

Have you ever wondered how fast you could run a mile on the road? Find out at the Mile of Truth. The iconic mile is unique in its ability to stoke the fire of even the most competitive runners. It’s 5,280 feet of pure, unadulterated effort.

The Masters Heat will undergo a change prior to the 2024 event as well as the registration mechanism in which we use to register the masters runners. Those running in the masters class will register through a special portal which is forth coming. Stay tuned.
