Uforea : Troy, North Carolina, April 17, 2027
Uforea is a trail running event organized by Uwharrie Events that uses the Uwharrie and Dutchman's Creek trail systems inside Uwharrie National Forest under a Special Use Permit. The format centers on two 50K races held in different directions and an option to complete both for an overall 100K result.
The course for each 50K combines a large loop and a lower loop. The large loop is 20.5 miles and the lower loop is 11.4 miles, producing a roughly 32-mile course for each 50K. The daytime event runs clockwise and the nighttime event runs counter-clockwise. Cutoffs are listed for each 50K event as 11 hours for the daytime race and 12 hours for the nighttime race.
Distances:
- 50K Daytime clockwise 20.5 mile loop plus 11.4 mile loop
- 50K Nighttime counter-clockwise 20.5 mile loop plus 11.4 mile loop
- 100K Ultimate by completing both daytime and nighttime 50K events
Participant limits and awards are specified: 100 spots for the Ultimate 100K, and 50 spots each for Daytime only and Nighttime only fields. Overall awards are given to the top three male and top three female finishers in each event. The podium for the Ultimate 100K is determined by the lowest combined times from both 50K races.
The published refund and deferment policy states 50% refunds are available until January 1 of the race year, no full refunds or bib transfers are offered, a single deferment may be granted, and certain life circumstances may receive 100% credit toward a future race. The event includes a USDA Forest Service nondiscrimination statement. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
