Welcome Back!

Across the Years is back for the 2026-27 edition and we are excited to welcome runners back this December! Join us for this fixed-time 6-day running event as we run into the New year with a community of familiar faces and welcomed new friends. Runners can choose from a menu of events that include both fixed-time and fixed-distance. Ring in the New Year and set a goal, break a record, earn a buckle or simply make new friends as we travel together Across the Years! Celebrate with us December 28, 2026 - January 3, 2027. Check out the website for more information.

Across the Years

Across the Years is the original fixed-time multi-day running event celebrating the New Year! Runners select their event and cover as much distance as possible. Each runner is free to walk, stop, eat, sleep whenever they wish, but the clock is always running! The event features the traditional 6-day race along with the 24 hour, 48 hour, and 72 hour races plus multiple fixed distances (100 Miles, 200 Miles or a daily Marathon), and the ever popular Last Person Standing event!

Around the Clock

Want to kick off your New Year with more of a challenge? The "Around the Clock" challenge gives participants entered in the fixed time-event another opportunity to earn a unique award along with all the bragging rights! We challenge any participant to record at least one lap per hour for the duration of their event. For example, a runner in the 24-hour event would run or walk minimum of one lap for each hour in the 24 hours they are competing. This lap must be started and finished within the hour. Complete this challenge and earn a custom token of achievement! Runner’s be wary, this challenge is more difficult than you may think! The same principle applies to all fixed time events at ATY including the 6 day race.
