It’s back! An urban ultra to start the new year off with a bang. This event first started in 2013 and has quickly become very popular, always filling before the registration closing date. With distances from about 10 to 100 miles, there’s something for everyone. Runners score some great swag, enjoy a tasty pre-race pasta dinner, get pampered by some really nice volunteers, lots of heated aid station support, warming stations, comaraderie with plenty of other crazy ultra runners, and some really cool finishers awards. This is a great race for first time and seasoned ultra runners alike. Walkers are welcome too. We’re here to have a good time!

South Gulfport, FL

This is THE INAGURAL 8K race in Gulfport. Last year’s USATF 5K is now a USAFT 8K, happening the first Saturday of the New Year (Jan 3rd, 2015)!

Running through an expanded, scenic, bay front course, you will start and end at the historic Casino building at the waterfront.

The event also includes a health fair expo the Friday prior, and post-race awards ceremony. We continue to grow each year, and would like to eventually make this a top race in the region and the state, benefiting prostate cancer screenings, education and ultimately saving lives!

Make sure you have a spot for the first race of the year, so register early to ensure your place!
