    Cool idea, man. There's a real problem with the lack of prize money in Europe for rather expensive events - what you're doing could contribute to the convo around that. Plus the money you're earning would be a real difference maker for a lot of runners, so it will inspire people.

    If you’re open to East coast, Run for the Diamonds 9 mile is in November in PA. 1st-7th get diamond rings (probably decent value for the challenge ) but the course record is 43:20 since 1980 and it’s 1k if you break it. Crazy course with 400ft climb in the third mile then all downhill

    lol I had nearly this exact idea but it would have been $5k since I am slower than you. Also, I think you might be missing out on some content by not including non cash prizes and then selling on Ebay. People love channels about flipping stuff. Last year I cashed ~$3,500 even though I'm old and slowing because a totally random half I ran had a 5k/2.5/1 prize pool that literally no one knew about.
