Funest 50K @ Carter Rd
The Funest 50K @ Carter Rd is a running event with three distances: 50 km, 30 km, and 10 km. The races take place on the mountain bike trails within Loyce E. Harpe Park (300 W Carter Rd, Mulberry, FL). The courses consist of a 10 km loop, which participants run multiple times depending on their registered distance (three loops for the 30 km, five loops for the 50 km).
The terrain features rolling hills, sand, and dirt trails. The trails pass through an old, abandoned phosphate mine area. The total event is limited to 100 runners across all distances.
Aid stations are located at the start area and at approximately the 3.5-mile point on the loop, providing electrolytes, soda, and water. Food will be available at the start/finish area, including quesadillas, hot dogs, hamburgers, and bacon. Chicken is offered after 10:30 AM, and pulled pork or brisket is available after 11:30 AM.
Awards are given to the top three overall male and female finishers, as well as the first male and female masters finishers. All finishers receive socks, a finisher sticker, and an award. A portion of each registration fee is allocated to Polk County Parks & Recreation for park maintenance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
