    🏃‍♀️ Event Info

    This registration is for the 5K Run portion only of the DefiPlate™ Hybrid Strength & Speed Competition.

    The 5K is a USATF-measured course that runs through the scenic Hudson Mills Metropark loop.

    All runners will receive official chip timing, individual results, and event placement recognition.

    ⚙️ Hybrid Competition Overview (for reference)

    The full hybrid event challenges athletes to perform two scored disciplines:

    Deficit Deadlift (using DefiPlate™ and a stiff bar)

    5K Run

    Competitors’ rankings are based on a combined 50/50 scoring system, rewarding both strength and endurance.

    (Example: a strong deadlifter can still win if they post a solid run time — balance is key.)

    Start: Mass start with chip timing

    Course Surface: Paved park path, scenic and flat
