The Swamp Stomp is a 5-mile run and a 4-mile walk. There is also a 1-mile fun run option. The race itself is run on the trails of Hawthorn Park. The trails are generally in good shape however the weather can always make it a bit swampy so look out for alligators. The course is always well marked with plenty of course volunteers. After the race, stick around for awards and the our post-race snacks!

You must preregister by March 15th at 11:59 PM to receive a shirt. Online registration will continue online up to race morning but no shirt will be provided.

Awards will be given; including overall awards, age group awards, and walker awards. Awards are based on 5-year age groups. The number of awards per age group will be determined based on the pre-registered numbers in each age group. Awards range from 1 to 3 per age group.

There are also walker awards that are not age based. The number of walker awards will be based on the number of pre-registered walkers and will be awarded based on the first walker across the finish line and so on. IF YOU ARE SIGNED UP AS A WALKER, PLEASE DO NOT RUN! We have competitive walkers who work hard to win the race and it wouldn’t be fair for a someone to run part of the race and beat out a competitive walker who walked the complete event.

Established in 2006, the Hawthorn Half Day Relay & Ultra is a one-of-a-kind endurance event welcoming runners and walkers of all levels. In 2026, we’re proud to celebrate our 20th anniversary—and we’d love for you to be part of it!

Choose between a 6-hour or 12-hour race, both starting at 7:00 a.m. Participants compete on a scenic 5K loop of trail and road. To ensure every lap counts, a ½-mile short course will be available during the final 30 minutes of the race.

Race Categories
- 6-Hour: Solo or Teams of 3
- 12-Hour: Solo, Teams of 2, or Teams of 3–6
Whether you’re running solo, walking laps, or relaying with friends, there’s a category for you.

The Course & Runners Village

Every loop brings you through Runners Village, where you’ll have a designated space for your tent, crew, and gear. You’ll also pass Race Headquarters, fully stocked with cold drinks, snacks, and essentials to keep you fueled all day.

Campgrounds along the course will be open for optional camping and include restrooms and water stations. This setup makes Hawthorn Half Day especially family- and crew-friendly—plenty of chances to cheer runners on lap after lap!

What Can You Do in Half a Day?

At Hawthorn Half Day, there is no set distance, only time, movement, and community. Take one lap or many. Set a goal or let the day unfold.

This race is about showing up, sharing miles, and finding your rhythm together.

Go solo or team up. Run, walk, or shuffle your way through as many miles as you can. Relay teams can split the distance however they choose, making this a great option for first-timers and seasoned ultrarunners alike.

What’s Waiting for You
- Live online tracking
- Professional race photography
- Runners Village with nearby playground, shelter, and restrooms
- Optional park camping for a full weekend experience (reserve early—it sells out!)
- Post-race party with awards and special giveaways
- Overall awards and finisher medals
- And of course… our signature baked potato bar and pie
Leave the chores and screens behind. Connect with your crew, soak up the outdoors, make new friends, and celebrate 20 years of Hawthorn Half Day.

Join us. Run your race. Be part of the Half Day family.
