4th Annual Runner's Depot Endurance Challenge
Saturday February 28 - Sunday March 1, 2026
The 4th Annual Runner’s Depot Endurance Challenge is a grueling test of physical and mental fortitude designed to push every participant to their absolute limits. Set against the scenic backdrop of Vista View Park, this "backyard style" ultramarathon demands a unique kind of discipline: instead of running at your own pace, you must complete a 2.083-mile loop every half hour. To remain in the competition, you must be back in the starting corral before the next 30-minute whistle blows. Over the course of 24 hours, those who survive all 48 segments will achieve the legendary feat of completing 100 miles.
The event kicks off on Saturday, February 28, 2026 at 8:00am, and concludes on Sunday, March 1 at 8:00am, offering options for both solo gladiators and social competitors. You can take on the full 100-mile journey as an individual or form a relay team of 2 to 4 people to share the load. While the individual challenge offers milestones at 25, 50, and 75 miles for those who may fall short of the full century, the team challenge is a race for the finish, requiring collective grit to reach that 100-mile mark. Whether you are running, walking, or crawling, the only rule is to keep moving before the clock runs out.
