Eastern States 100: Friday Funtivities
Come for your bib, stay for the nonsense.
Bib pickup is extended this year: 1:30–6:30 PM, so you’ve got five whole hours to grab your number and soak in the chaos before your date with destiny at dawn.Our Assistant to the Vice President of Eastern States Entertainment and Chief Creative Portfolio Strategy Programming insisted that we make good use of this time. So, introducing:
FRIDAY FUNTIVITIES
Games. Prizes. Shenanigans. Regret? Maybe. Memories? Definitely.
2:00–3:00 PM — “FEETS OF STRENGTH: TRAIL EDITION”
Push, pull, hold, hustle!
Test your trail toughness with ridiculous mini-challenges like planks, one-legged balance flamingos, and whatever else MC Hot Pants dreams up. Prizes for the fierce, the foolish, and the flexible.
3:30–4:30 PM — “BING-OHHHHH NO!”
Trail-themed bingo with custom boards, oddball pieces, and even weirder prizes. Finish a row, yell something dramatic, and maybe win a headlamp full of gummy worms. (You’ll probably make a friend.)
5:00–6:00 PM — “THE QUAD SQUAD SHOWDOWN”
Teams of four compete in a four-part relay of nonsense and mild athleticism. Every challenge is different. Every teammate has their moment. Points are meaningless, but glory is forever.
DISCLAIMER:
All events are subject to the moods, moon phase, and hydration levels of MC Hot Pants. Expect improvisation. Embrace the ridiculous. Bring your best trail spirit and a willingness to laugh at yourself.This is Eastern States 100. The course is brutal. Friday doesn’t have to be.
