Extreme Iron Y Challenge

Have you already completed the Iron Y Challenge in the past and are looking for even more of a physical test this winter?

If so, check out our new Extreme Iron Y Challenge! Participants can register to swim 25 miles, run or walk 75 miles and bike 200 miles—or you can sign up for any of the disciplines individually. The cost is $25 for all three and $10 each if you choose just 1 or 2.

Participants track their progress on the windows of the Multipurpose Room in the main hallway. Kick off the challenge and count the miles you run on Thanksgiving morning in the Carlisle Family YMCA Turkey Trot 5K Presented by Penn State Health! Tally the miles you ride in power cycling classes or on bikes in the Wellness Center, miles you run outside and on our treadmills and yards you swim in our pool. Sign up for the Y-Tri to finish off your miles on the final day of the challenge.

Everyone who completes all three of the Extreme Y distances will be entered in a drawing for a $50 gift card to Appalachian Running Company.

Everyone who registers for all three also will receive a $5 coupon code to register for the Carlisle Family YMCA Turkey Trot 5K Presented by Penn State Health!

Who: All ages

Member Fee: Swim, Bike or Run/Walk = $10 each | Swim, Bike & Run/Walk = $25
