Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox athletics race The Arrowhead 135 is a yearly ultramarathon event which takes place in International Falls, Minnesota, United States.
Course and race
The trail is 135 miles on Arrowhead State Trail from Kerry Park arena in International Falls, MN to Tower, MN Fortune Bay Casino. Modes of transportation includes foot, ski or bicycle, and the race is held in late January or early February.[1]
Temperatures along the course reach as low as Шаблон:Convert degrees.[2]
Arrowhead 135 is a self-supported race with limited checkpoints, requiring extensive supplies to be carried with the racer.[3][4] The roster is limited in order to maintain solitude on the trail during the race.[5]
Profits from the race go to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation Charity,[6] Together For Good and the Falls Hunger Coalition.[7]
An "unsupported" option allows participants to choose to complete the race unsupported, meaning they are not allowed to accept help or stop at any of the checkpoints along the way.[2]
Although not sanctioned by the event, some choose to complete the event in both directions making it a "Double Arrowhead".[8]
History and records
Arrowhead 135 is known as one of the toughest 50 races in the world.[5][9] As many as 80% fail to finish the race,[10] with a low of 20% finishing in 2007,[11] on a typical year less than 50 percent of the participants finish.[12] It was started in 2005 with 10 people,[13] and the format of the race has been largely unchanged.[7]
The race gathered extra attention in 2014[14] and 2019 due to the polar vortex which caused extreme cold in the midwest those years.[3][7][15][16]
In 2014 an adventure film documentary was made about the race.[17][18]
