Run the River Ultra
Nestled along the serene Leaf River, the fourth annual Run the River Ultra invites runners and walkers of all abilities to relish a 6-hour looped trail challenge. Whether you're chasing ultra miles, collaborating with a relay team, or simply enjoying a leisurely walk, this event offers a dynamic and welcoming atmosphere perfect for both first-timers and seasoned trail runners.
Course
Participants will journey through a roughly 2.5-mile loop weaving from wide meadow lanes into charming single-track, beneath a hardwood canopy. You'll pass scenic riverfront views, tranquil lagoons, wetlands, palmetto fields, and even cross historic train trestles — all designed to showcase the best of Petal River Park
Experience
This tailgate-style event encourages runners and their supporters to create their own rest zones. Family and friends can cheer at the exchange as each teammate emerges from the woods and sprints the final meadow stretch. It’s a lively, communal celebration of endurance and camaraderie — perfect for team strategy, personal achievement, or a beginner's introduction to the ultra world
