The RIVALRY RACE: Lehigh vs Lafayette 15 Mile Challenge

The inaugural Lehigh versus Lafayette 15 mile Challenge is a one of a kind event that will be an individual challenge with a team twist! The run will begin on Lafayette campus in Easton and end up blocks away from Lehigh in the south side of Bethlehem, PA.  During registration, runners will pick a side to support – whether it is your alma mater, a family tradition or you just like brown better than maroon or leopards more than mountain hawks…pick your side. All runners are automatically entered into the challenge….the team with the most runners in the top 50% of finishers will earn an extra award!

In partnership with Lehigh University and Lafayette College, a portion of the proceeds from the event will go to the Bethlehem and Easton Area School District Foundations in support of health and wellness activities.

Can’t swing the whole 15 — we are also working on a two-person and 3-person relay options so you don’t miss out on the fun!

All runners will receive a long-sleeved race shirt – finisher medal and post-race water, food, beer and entertainment.
