READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

September in Freeport averages 17°C, an excellent temperature for chasing a personal best.

Your body can cool quickly while waiting at the start, so wear a disposable outer layer and take it off just before the gun.

Public transit does not reach the venue.

A personal vehicle or rental car is the only realistic option.

Registration is handled through the RunSignup platform.

Ultras are decided by fueling and foot care, not speed.

Break in your shoes and socks well before race day, and if there are nighttime sections, bring spare headlamp batteries.

The 06:30 start is early.

Counting backward from wake-up, breakfast, and travel, it is more convenient to stay near start line the night before.

Registration is open until September 23, 2026.

Times are local to Freeport. Check the latest official information before the race.
