  • We all know Florida weather can change in a minute. Safety is our priority, but we hold off as long as we can before we are required to cancel or postpone a race. Communication will be handled via email and social media.

  • For Sure! You must change your event prior to race registration closing and you can only change to a race that has open registration.

  • The only pace requirement is at our OVERFLOW race. We have to be out of the park by dark, so we may have to push you to finish.

    All of our other races we do not have a pace requirement. We encourage all joggers and walkers to do there very best.

  • We have two bundles:

    Triple Trail Trifecta

    With this option, you can register for all 3 races in 2024. Upon doing so, you will receive a free hydration pack.

    Double Down Bundle

    The Double Down Bundle includes Colt Creek and Lake Louisa races in 2024. Registering for this bundle gives you access to a special Double Down medal.

    All distances count for eligibility.

  • We definitely allow strollers! Just know that your race will be much more challenging because it is off-road, and there are areas of soft sand.

  • We are pet friendly, so feel free to bring your leashed furry friend. Help us keep our state parks clean by not leaving any poop behind.

  • Please collect your packet on Friday. This ensures a smoother race day experience, though you're also welcome to pick it up on race day.

  • We’ll ship your award at your convenience. There is a $15 fee.
