Routes are mainly single-track through palm groves and pine flatwoods, with some mud, grass and roots. The 100 and 50 mile courses are about 80% trail, with approximately 2 miles of pavement. The 100 mile includes a 25 mile out-and-back section with crew access for the final 50 miles.
Cutoff times are: 34 hours for the 100 mile, 16 hours for the 50 mile, 5 hours for the 15 mile (with a 3.25 hour cutoff at about mile 10 aid station), and 3 hours for the 8 mile. Runners may see a variety of birds on course, including herons, cranes, bald eagles and spoonbills; the organizer notes the route is not a swamp run. Volunteers receive free race entries, which are transferable. Swag guarantees for early registrants include items for 100, 50, 15 and 8 mile participants as listed by the organizer.
