Billed as the “Worlds Hardest 400 Meter Race” The Race Up The Face is an event that thrills spectators and pushes competitors
to their limits. This years event will be June 18, 2012 at the WISP resort. Although it is a race in technical terms. Finishing is a victory in anyone’s eyes. I was at the top of the black diamond ‘Face’ of WISP as an EMT last year and the view over Deep Creek Lake and watching the runners sometimes claw and crawl up the slope was amazing.
Contestants ranged in age from 6 to 82 and came in every shape and size. For a registration form CLICK HERE. Not only is this a great event to watch or run it is in conjunction with Garrett Trails main fundraiser. The Taste Of Garrett.
Below is a video that shows the race from a participants perspective.
