Sundown Rundown isn’t just a race. It’s a battle against the clock.

Trail Circuit Run: 1.6-ish miles to +35.7 miles. We run until it's done!

One start. One course. A lot of shared effort.

The clock shrinks, the laps stack up, and the group naturally reshapes itself. Between rounds, there’s time to catch your breath, share a laugh, and decide to go out one more time.

However far you make it, you’re part of the night and part of how end Summer Camp on a high note.

And when it’s all over share burgers, s'mores, stories, and celebrate the night’s together.

One winner but many memories to create. How far will you go before time runs out?
