Barrier Island Ultra

Website

The Barrier Island Ultra is a scenic trail running event held in Port Aransas, Texas, along Mustang Island, adjacent to the longest undeveloped barrier island in the world. Runners can choose from multiple distances including 5k, 10k, half marathon, marathon, 50k, and 50 miles. The course features a unique oceanfront route on hard-packed sand near the Gulf of Mexico, offering runners the choice between running close to the water or on softer sand near the road.

The race emphasizes an eco-friendly, cupless format with aid stations every 3-5 miles. Post-race festivities include beachside relaxation, food, and shopping, making it a memorable coastal running experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
