How does it work?

The 2024 Williamsburg Bridge Marathon will be a random distance between 10 and 40 miles. Shortly after the race begins, organizers will generate a random number between 10 and 40. This number will be published X*4.5minutes after the start time of the race.

Example: if the selected distance is 32, the announcement will be posted online 144 minutes after the start of the race.

In order to be eligible for prize money, racers must:

• Submit a Strava file that begins at the start time of the race and completes the full distance.
• Distance will be determined by the number of full bridge laps in the file, NOT the distance reported by Strava.
