The Gambler Last Man Standing

The Gambler Last Man Standing is held at Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham, Alabama. It’s a lap-style ultra on a two-mile loop, mostly trails with a few road sections and a lake-view stretch, about 183 feet of elevation per lap. Each lap must be completed in under 40 minutes, with eliminations until a single runner remains.

Each successful lap earns a poker chip worth $1, up to 50 chips (100 miles). Cash-out milestones exist, and after 100 miles the format changes, eliminating chips and introducing slower-lap limits. The Last Man Standing bucket prizes the winner.

Full aid, cup-less stations, headlamps advised, pacing limited to one pacer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
