RED STONE ULTRA 2023 - RUN THROUGH THE OLDEST GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURE ON EARTH | 05 FEBRUARY, 2023
The Red Stone Ultra, Ladies & Gentlemen, is a Hell Race designed to make you run a trail race through the Northern Aravalli Range at the Delhi - Haryana Border. The Aravalli Range is arguably the oldest geological feature on Earth having its origin in the Proterozoic era. It has been the site of three broad stages of human history – early Stone Age, mid-Stone Age and the post Stone Age. These Ranges have historically seen the development of the Kalibangan civilization, 4,000 years old Aahar civilization and 2,800 years old Gneshwar civilization. The fact that, together we will be running through the oldest geological structure on earth to celebrate this sport of trail running feels us with an overwhelming enthusiasm.
RED STONE ULTRA - A NEW HELL RACE
It had been a while since the ultra runners had gotten to run a trail race in and around the capital of India, and we had been looking for trails worthy of a Hell Race. We set out on a hunt to find and create a race that not only works as an easy lure into the world of ultra trail running but also keeps the standards of a Hell Trail race alive. Besides, the idea has been of hosting a race which does not need much of an offbeat travel and still fits into the packaging of a good outdoor running adventure through the mountains. The Haryana side of the The Northern Aravalli range near the Delhi - Haryana Border just plays the perfect stage for this much awaited trail race in the National Capital Region of India.
RED STONE ULTRA - WHAT’S THE CHALLENGE
The Northern Aravalli range in Delhi and Haryana has humid subtropical climate and hot semi-arid continental climate with very hot summers and relatively cool winters.
The Haryana side of the Gurugram-Faridabad Aravalli hill forests lack availability of water due to which wild animals are seldom seen there. The Government of Haryana has dug 22 ephemeral pits and is working on making them perennial by connecting those with pipelines from the nearby villages. This part of the Aravali has also been a historical mining site for minerals and the mining trenches left by the civilizations pose for a landscape that just fits in for a Hell Race. We run the Red Stone Ultra through and by this pits, mining trenches and several other ancient geological landmarks. The race has following three categories:
50 KM | 08 HOURS | 400M D+
DATE: 5th FEBRUARY, 2023
