Commodore 24 Hour Challenge

Join us for the 1st Commodore 24 hour Challenge at Gulf Coast State College. 
Are you ready to take on the challenge of running for 24 hours? Let’s go! The challenge is you have a 1 mile run every 30 minutes.

Don’t think this is a task to go solo on? No worries, we have a team option. Grab your running buddy and sign up for the 2-person team.

Bring out your family & friends and create a tailgate at the race venue. Have them run by your side for the harder miles or cheer you on at the start/finish line.

Participants should plan on bringing enough and hydration to last them 24 hours, however we are planning on some special snacks and food throughout the night.

Runners must be at least 16 years of age to participate.

All runners are encouraged to bring a pop-up tent or camping tent to set up on the baseball field. This will be your home away from home for the next 24 hours.

Course

The one-mile course consist of starting at the Gulf Coast State College baseball field. Runners will travel WEST, go through the round-about until they reach the Military and Veterans Resource Center. Runners will hug the right side of the parking lot until they reach the Student Union West. They will follow the left hand turn and run straight back down the main parking lot until they reach the baseball stadium.
