Swan's Song Urban Run

Swan's Song Urban Run is an urban adventure run in Lakeland, FL, organized by the Where's the Finish? Podcast crew. The event follows a city route that passes painted swan sculptures from the Swansation public art project. The listed meeting location is 228 S Massachusetts Ave, Lakeland, FL 33801.

The event is presented as a low-key, self supported urban adventure rather than a competitive race. It requires navigation and offers turn-by-turn directions; participants should expect a sightseeing and scavenger hunt style experience. There is no time limit. Organizers note there may be some water drops and special treats along the route, but the event should not be considered fully supported.

The published route covers about 18(ish) miles and includes roughly 26 painted swans. The main distance for this event is 30k. Race book and route materials are provided by the organizers. Regular registration closes two days before the event on Fri, Feb 20 at 11:59 PM ET, and the event offers race day registration for a cash fee of $20.

A multi-event challenge pairs Swan's Song with Skunk Ape's Revenge and Painted Horse Urban Ultra. Challenge options include full and partial levels with separate entry fees and awards such as a buckle for the full challenge. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
