Tideland 24 is a fully supported 24 hours ultramarathon held on November 7, 2026 in Cedar Point, North Carolina, within the Croatan National Forest. The event is organized by Tideland 24 and all net proceeds benefit the Marine Raider Foundation.

Participants run repeating laps on the Tideland National Recreation Trail, a USATF certified 1.37779 mile loop. The route follows the White Oak River and passes adjoining salt marsh and forest. The course includes various aluminum and wooden bridges and is described as a well-groomed trail of crushed gravel with minimal trip hazards and elevation gain.

The event operates as a non-profit; every dollar after costs is donated to the Marine Raider Foundation. Organizers report more than $39,000 raised to date and a continuing partnership with the MILES FOR MARSOC Community Athlete Program. Athletes who raise funds may have their entry fee waived; participants should contact the race director for details.

Awards are listed for Top 3 Male and Top 3 Female overall, a Top Active Duty award, and all who complete 100 miles receive a 100 Mile belt buckle. Registration closes on November 2 at 11:59 PM ET.
