8-Hours of Berm
The 8-Hours of Berm is an 8 hour timed trail event held at Ross Prairie Trailhead in Dunnellon, FL on August 15, 2026. The course uses the Berm Loop section of the Skunk Ape 100 Mile Endurance Run course and runs through longleaf pine forests, oak hammocks and dry prairies on cleared fire lines and forest roads.
The event is run as continuous timed laps on a loop course. Loop distance is 6.5 Miles and elevation gain per lap is +135'. The organizer states there are no DNFs and no cutoffs. Participants do not require a crew or a pacer to complete laps.
The venue supports self crewing and on-site aid. Participants may set up 10x10 tents for self-crew and self-aid; maps for tent and crew locations are provided in race communications. The Ross Prairie site includes a bathhouse and campground facilities.
Ross Prairie Campground offers 14 sites with 30 and 50 amp electrical pedestals, potable water hookups, picnic pavilions, a dump station and a bathhouse. Registration closes on August 8, 2026. The event is organized by Combat Racing, a veteran owned and operated small business that promotes trail and ultra events in Florida.
