Race Information

The Ultra Running Guys bring you a new unique race experience where your mission is to conquer the 5 heads of the Hydra and collect the treasure that is protected by each.

There will be an individual event and a team relay event (up to 5 runners), and the objective is to complete each of 5 separate loops, scoop up the gems that await on each loop, and return the treasure to your treasure chest for safekeeping.

The 5 loops will be varying lengths of approx 5-7 miles, for a combined total course distance of 31ish miles (50Kish).

But here's the twist: you get to pick the order in which you run the loops. That’s right. You get to choose your adventure. All 5 loops will need to be completed, but the order is up to you.

Are you ready to take on The Hydra?
