Course and environment

The course uses loops on the Jupiter Ridge Natural Area, a coastal scrub habitat on ancient sand dunes. The night 30k consists of four 4.5-mile loops totaling about 18 miles and about 1,000 feet of climbing. Reported elevation gain figures include about 800 feet for the half marathon, about 2,000 feet for the 50K, and about 3,000 feet for the 50 Miler. Mount Ridge, a dune on the site, is reported as 49 feet above sea level. Jupiter Ridge Natural Area is managed by Palm Beach County and contains rare Florida Scrub habitat; the site is described as one of the remaining stands of this ecosystem.

Logistics and support

The event provides two on-course aid stations: start/finish and a station near the 2.25-mile mark. Drop bags are allowed at the start/finish area (one small bag per runner), accessible after each loop. The race is chip timed by A1/Trailhead Ultras. The organizer offers a refund and race-credit policy with a full refund (minus processing fee) available through October 1, 2025, and other options thereafter.
