Cape Fear 24 Hour
Lillington, United States • 11-12 Oct 2025
The Cape Fear 24 Hour endurance run takes place in Lillington, North Carolina, on a USATF certified 0.59-mile asphalt loop surrounding local baseball fields. The mostly flat course features one small incline and is well-lit at night by park lights, eliminating the need for headlamps. Participants can run any distance within the 24-hour period, supported by a fully stocked aid station offering typical ultra foods, drinks, and later, hot meals like hamburgers and pizza.
Ample parking and tent space near cars are available, though open fires are prohibited. Costume runners are encouraged, with a special award for the most miles run in costume. Proceeds benefit the Buddy Backpack program. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
