Mel Williams Memorial Seashore 50K
Virginia Beach, United States • 14 Dec 2025
The Mel Williams Memorial Seashore 50K, presented by Brooks, is a challenging trail ultramarathon held at First Landing State Park in Virginia Beach, VA. The race features a two-loop course starting and finishing at the park's boat ramp, covering 50 kilometers (31 miles) through scenic trails. Runners benefit from two full aid stations stocked with food, water, and Tailwind nutrition, though the event is cupless, so participants are encouraged to carry their own hydration gear.
The race includes awards for top finishers across various age groups and categories. Post-race festivities take place at Smartmouth Brewery, offering food and a beer ticket to runners and volunteers. The event emphasizes community spirit and outdoor endurance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
