Punch Out Ultra, a "Suffer UP" Event Tucked away in the quiet backwoods of Northwest Florida, the Punch Out Ultra takes runners through a one-of-a-kind course winding across a private high-fence deer ranch — a wild and scenic setting you won’t find anywhere else.The course is a 4-mile out-and-back loop that starts and finishes beside a mirror-still pond, where fog rises with the dawn and the reflections of the trees ripple with each passing runner. From there, the route unfolds across pine needle–covered trails, sandy dirt roads, and stretches of grassy relief. The mix of surfaces keeps your legs guessing — offering a little bit of everything Florida’s trail country has to give. Expect gentle elevation, natural beauty, and plenty of solitude, with the occasional deer watching you from the woodline.Each lap brings you back to the heart of the ranch — the start/finish beside the pond — where camaraderie, determination, and the will to push yourself to new limits meet. Whether you’re chasing a
personal best or simply testing how far your feet can carry you, the Punch Out Ultra is more than a race — it’s an adventure through raw, rugged Florida that will stay with you long after the dust settles. Race Outline * This is an out and back course through ATV style trails. The property is home to several well managed deer so the sights will be impressive if you keep your eyes open for those mature whitetail deer. * The distance for each leg is 4.2 miles. You will run out to the turn around where you will be met by a volunteer and a water only aid station. Once you cross the start/finish line, you will receive a hole punch in your bib for that lap to count. This is one lap which equals one hole punch. * Each team member can run or walk at their desired pace and get as many laps as possible for their team but each member must complete at least one lap for the whole team to qualify. * There will be one full aid station at the start line and a water station at the turn around. We ask that
you bring your own bottle or cup to drink from as this will be a cupless event. * At the aid station there will be snacks and electrolyte mixes for you to enjoy. We will also serve a light lunch for all runners to enjoy during the race. Please also bring your own food/electrolytes for the race as you will be burning a lot of calories during this event! Rules This race is hosted by the Suffer Up Podcast in partnership with the Mens Barn Meeting in Molino, Florida. The overall mission of the race is to create an uplifting environment for runners of all skill level to compete and push themselves in a team setting. Our mission here at Suffer Up is to encourage and lead others to suffer with a purpose. Striving to level up in life with an emphasis on spiritual, mental, and physical wellbeing. We trust that all runners and spectators will be respectful and courteous towards one another. * Individual or 4 person teams. No more, no less. * Each team member must complete at least 1 lap to qualify. *
This race is a set time limit of 8 hours. Complete as many legs as you can in the 8 hours, or less if you choose. If you are not back by the end of the 8 hours, that lap will not count. No partial laps will be counted.* If you need to rest for any reason, feel free! This is a self paced event; all levels of fitness are welcome! You can run as many or as few legs as you wish. * Each runner will be assigned a bib, you must wear your bib during the entire race. There will be no swapping of bibs for any reason and you will receive one punch per bib per lap. * When traveling on the trail you will stay on the right side of the road/trail. This is a wide enough trail to drive a pick up truck through so be respectful of other runners and follow the rules of the road while on the trail. * You will be disqualified if you are found running off of the trail, littering, harassing wildlife, damaging property, short cutting, or any other form of reckless behavior. It is a privilege for us to utilize this
space for this race and if anyone is found behaving as such you will be politely asked to leave the event and your team will be disqualified. It will be up to the race director and the landowners discretion if the behavior warrants a disqualification. We WILL uphold this. We want everyone to have a fun and great race so we must hold a high level of respect for others and the property. * You must be starting your final lap at least 40 min prior to the 8 hour event finish. * You must complete an entire leg for the lap to count. If you don’t cross the finish line then that lap will not count. * In the event one of your team members decides to drop, that is fine as their laps will count towards the overall team score, however no alternate will be allowed to enter in place of the runner who dropped. Once all team members have dropped your team’s race is completed. Individual Runners: The rules are simple for you, run as many laps as you can on this beautiful trail for 8 hours and accomplish your
goal or personal best. We will award you with a Suffer Up challenge coin if you complete 7 laps in the 8 hours. We do encourage you to try and assemble a team as this race is designed to push and uplift others! Your other team members only need to complete 1 lap to be eligible as a team. You WILL be respectful to all volunteers and race staff. If you are found being rude, or disrespectful to any members present, your team will be forfeited and asked to leave the premises. This is a family orientated event and outlandish behavior will NOT be tolerated by Suffer Up or The Mens Barn Meeting Staff. Kids Race We will have a free kids race during the event for children ages 3-12. Time TBA. We kindly ask that an adult be present during the .3 mile loop race around the beautiful lake. Food and Amenities There will be restrooms, the covered barn, non potable water, and space for people to set up a tent for the race. We will have a full aid station at the start/finish line with water, food and
snacks; and a water station at the turn around mark. We will have a food truck on site as well for runners and spectators to eat and enjoy during the event. There is also an alligator pen for SPECTATING ONLY!!On-site camping is not available due to the nature of this being a high fence deer ranch.

A History of the MCL/TEL Semper Fi 5K Charity Run for Children
The origin of the run was as a fundraiser for the children and families of the Marines and Sailors who had perished in the Marine Barracks Beirut, Lebanon terrorist bombing attack on October 23, 1983. Marine 1stLt Chris Holzworth, having recently reported to the Marine Air Training and Support Group-21 (MATSG-21), Naval Air Station Pensacola, for flight training, presented the idea for the charity run to the Commanding
Officer, Colonel Robert “Bull” Bland, USMC. MATSG-21 adopted the idea and became the first sponsor of the event, initially named The Beirut Relief 10K Run. Colonel Bland assigned 1st Lt Chris Holzworth, who had initiated the idea, as the first Race Director.
NAS Pensacola hosted the first run on Armed Forces Day in May 1984 with Brigadier General Joseph Hoar, USMC representing Headquarters Marine Corps and receiving the proceeds of the race. Over 500 military and civilian runners participated in that first event which contributed over $4,000 for a Marine Corps Scholarship Fund established for the children of the families who had lost loved ones in the Beirut attack. The race continued for several years to be sponsored and executed by MATSG-21 with all proceeds going to the scholarship fund. Eventually, the command shifted the race proceeds to Non-Profit Children’s Organizations of the Greater Pensacola area in keeping with “the tradition of giving to the children.” Each year Semper Fi 5K runners are joined by local active-duty military units, such as MATSG-21/23, several Naval Aviation training squadrons, and local high school JROTC units who run the event in formation.
In 2014, because the military was heavily engaged in the Global War on Terror (GWOT), leadership for the race changed to the Marine Corps League (MCL), Cpl J. R. Spears Detachment 066. At the same time.
The race starts and finishes at Seville Quarter in Downtown Pensacola.

From the white-sand shores of Big Lagoon State Park to the storied walls of Fort Morgan Historic Site, this 50 Mile and 50K journey is more than a race — it’s a coastal odyssey.
Runners begin at sunrise beneath whispering pines and the salty breeze of the Gulf Coast. The air hangs thick with anticipation as feet press into soft sand and smooth coastal pavement, tracing the edge of emerald waters. Pelicans glide overhead. The rhythm of the tide sets the tempo.
The course stretches west, hugging the raw beauty of the Gulf shoreline. Long, runnable sections invite you to find your stride, while rolling bridges and exposed causeways test both grit and focus. The sun climbs higher, casting a golden shimmer across the water — beautiful, relentless, unforgettable.
For 50K athletes, the challenge is bold and bracing — a fast, scenic test of endurance where sea air fills your lungs and every mile feels earned.
For 50 Mile runners, the day becomes an expedition. Miles stack quietly. Conversations fade. Determination takes over. The horizon feels endless, yet every step carries you closer to history.
As you approach Fort Morgan, the silhouette of the stone fortress rises against the sky — a monument that has stood through centuries of storms and battles. Your final stretch echoes that resilience. Legs burning, heart pounding, you cross the finish line where land meets legend.
Two states.
Fifty miles of coastline.
One unforgettable finish.
This is not just a race.
It’s a passage along the Gulf — wild, windswept, and deeply rewarding.
