Trail Running Festival at Doris Leeper Spruce Creek Preserve

Join the annual Trail Running Festival at Doris Leeper Spruce Creek Preserve this  December.  Do you love trail running?  Do you want to try it out for the first time? This race is for you. Running along well maintained trails this race will take you through some of the 2,500 acres of the Doris Leeper Spruce Creek Preserve with old growth forests, oak hammocks and along the river and salt marshes of Spruce Creek.  

Offering 3 different events, there is something for every ability level – there will be the Badass Boar 48K Ultra Marathon, the Hungry Horsefly Half Marathon and the Torpid Tortoise 12K. All events will start and end at the Creek Shore Trail access point of the park. The course is a 12K or 7.5 mile loop. Half marathon and 48K participants will complete multiple loops on the trail. Walkers are welcome for the 12K and Half. The cutoff for all distances is 2:00PM. That’s 7 hours for the 48K which means participants must be able to maintain a 14 minute per mile pace over the entire course. There will be a hard cutoff to start your last lap no later than 12:30PM.
