Riverbend Ultras

Come join us at the River Pavilion on Picnic Island in beautiful Riverbend Park! Run a 5ish-k (3.2 mi) loop along the tranquil Loxahatchee River over gravel trails (including a section of the Lake to Ocean Trail) through the oaks and cabbage palms while scoping all the deer, turkey, turtles, raccoons, and myriad of birds along the way. This is a low-key, low-stress event focused on community and love of Nature, with something for everyone.

12-Hour: As many 3.25 mile Riverbend Loops as participant can complete within the timeframe.
50-K: 2 x .85 mile Picnic Island Loops plus 9 x 3.25 Riverbend Loops for a total of 31.2 miles. 
There will be trophies for 1st Place Female and Male in each distance. ALL 50k and 12-Hour Runners get shirts and medals.

For the 50K or 12-hour officially there is a minimum cost to cover medals, awards and shirts. Fun Run participants do not get medals, shirts or qualify for awards. This is a fat@$$-style event, so runners will take care of themselves, although we encourage everyone to potluck snacks and treats. There is plenty of room to set up for the whole day.

This is a non-profit endeavor and ALL proceeds beyond basic overhead will go to benefit the local Florida Trail Association chapter.
