Route information

Runners will embark on J&A Racing’s Sun Up to Sun Down 50K Trail Race in First Landing State Park. From sun up to sun down, participants will gather on the hour every hour to run a 5K loop completing a 50K before the sun sets.

The course is a 5K loop with a shared start/finish line. Participants must be ready and at the start line at the top of every hour.

Individual: Run a 5K every hour on the hour for 10 hours straight.

Two Person Team: All laps must be completed and each teammate must complete 5 loops each (if each teammate doesn’t complete 5 loops each, the team will be disqualified). Teams can determine how they want to split the 50K distance/10 loops. For example: teammates may alternate loops or one team mate may run the first 5 while the other runs the last five.
