The Night Hawk 50K and 10 Miler is a Running race in Lawrence, Kansas consisting of a 50K.

This 50K course consists of mostly rugged trails running through the beautiful trees, out on the white trail to Land's End (~6 1/2 miles) and returning to the Start/Finish line on the blue trail(~3 1/2 miles). This is a 3 loop course with each loop running 10.3 miles long.

Aide stations are located at Land's End and the Start/Finish Line and will have water, sports drink, gels, fruit, and sweet and salty snacks.

Alternate Course will be approximately 70% asphalt paved roads and 30% cross country type running. We apologize for the pavement but we must preserve the trails so they will be runnable again soon and hopefully we will be on the regularly scheduled course next year. The alternate course will be well marked and staffed to keep you on course.

First Aide Station is located at about 5 miles into the loop, at the intersection of 1415 Rd and 700 Road. It is located prior to entering the Loop of Ultimate Darkness cross country section. You will see it on your way out and you will pass by it again on your back to the start/finish line aid station. There are only 2 aide stations due to the looping course.

The start/finish line will have some good grub available for a post-race refueling. We will have regular, vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options.

The Gladiator Dash is an action packed 5k race designed to test your speed, strength and endurance through land, water and obstacles. All proceeds benefit Newman Athletics and The Child Advocacy Center of Sedgwick County. Challenge the Gladiator in you!

The Derby Run Club proudly presents the 28th annual Not 4 Wimps race!  We are excited to offer a repeat starting line at the Warren Riverview park!  You'll be treated to a beautiful new 1440 square foot lodge, complete with a clear view of the Arkansas River.  More trails, less street running and a few more challenges for those that accept our invitation to the N4W survivor club. You'll still be treated to home-baked goodies at the finish line, but we've stepped-up the comfort level.  You'll enjoy the lovely fireplace, and a world-class view of those still coming in off of the course. Prior survivors will assure you that the only requirements are a superior fitness level, less than optimal judgment, guts, and a desire to accomplish something that most folks just can’t do.

"No Frills" Race

This is a timed course that is marked well, but it is still a trail course!  If you don't see any course markings, you are going the wrong way!   If you are not leading the course and you come across a spider web, you may be going the wrong way!  If you get lost and tack on some extra mileage, well then you got some extra bang for your buck!  You're not going to get an age group medal, or a finishers medal, or a pretty shirt with this race.  When you get done, we have some awesome giveaways to go along with the pride of knowing that you didn't wimp out and take the shortcut back.  Feel free to also brag to your friends that you finished a challenging race in the middle of February, while everyone else is still in hibernation mode, or stuck on a treadmill wishing for some new scenery!   This race is a bargain, and we want to keep it that way! 

No Shirts - But you can buy a Not 4 Wimps HOODIE for $25 . . . . . or 10 for $250!

The Derby Running Club events are proud of our "By Runners for Runners" race management and as runners, we KNOW that you probably don't need one more T-shirt, especially in February.  Those of you who DO want something warm and fun to commemorate your amazing feat may purchase (advance only) a nice-quality Guildan charcoal-grey pullover hoodie with a small chest-logo and a large back-print of the Not-4-Wimps Motto; "Sweat Dries, Blood Clots, Bones Heal . . . Suck it up Princess" on the back.  This is likely to be the first in a series that you'll want to add to your winter wardrobe!  Cut-off date to order is  one week prior to race and will be ready for you at registration.

Packet Pickup

Packet pickup will start at 11:00 am the day of the race.  Not-4 Wimps gloves and caps are available for the first 150 registered at no additional charge.  Register early, when they're gone, they're gone!  Race day registration will be available for $30.00.  If you choose to switch between race distances, simply notify registration during packet pickup.  There will be no charge for doing so, only a little bit of mockery if you move down in distance!
