Beat Your Own Pace: Mizuno Infinity Run


In 2009, the Mizuno Infinity Run introduced an idea of a time trial when it started the “Beat Your Own Time”.

In 2011 it has returned with a greater challenge for all runners out there. Mizuno shall have its first 21K course,




replacing the 15K distance. This seeks to answer the runners’ demand for a longer, and a more challenging distance. Mizuno Infinity Run 2011 presents the “Beat Your Own Pace” wherein distance shifters (from a lower to a higher distance) who are able to beat their previous race’s pace will be rewarded with a Mizuno Prestige Card.

For same distance runners, they are also given the chance to win a medal if they are able to beat their own pace from the previous year.

Another reasons why you don't want to missed the 2011 Infinity Run.
