The 23rd Edition of the Tour de Pain
Many years ago, the Tour de Pain was born out of the age-old question of “what would happen if I just keep racing?” Now in its 20th edition, the Tour de Pain has been enlightening Rochester area runners for decades. If you’re looking for glory, then this isn’t the race for you. If you’re looking for pain, then this my friend, is the race for you.
The Tour will be held as part of the final IEXC race on August 22th. Immediately following the 5k race participants will complete a 1 mile race and then a 400 meter race. Might there be some special, painful surprises to commemorate 20+ years of Pain? Your journey to enlightenment begins with a single click.
Registration for Tour de Paine is no longer separate!
