The 2022 Hainesport Endurance Run  is listed as a Bronze Label Race by the IAU.

Why an IAU Label? The IAU decided to introduce the IAU Labelling in 2008 to ensure that:  

• The race course is measured to conform to the WA regulations, and this is especially important when a World or Continental Best Performance is run. It is the only way performances can be compared. 
• The race is recognised by its own National Athletics Federation, to bring "ultrarunning" closer to the National Federations. 

The result is that only performances in the IAU labelled races will be recognised officially by the IAU This is not only important for possible "Best Performances" but also for the calculations of the Travel Grants which are distributed at the occasion of our Major IAU Competitions (MIAUC´s).
