About the race
The Born to Run Ultra Marathons take place May 12–16, 2027 in Los Olivos, CA, and are organized by All We Do Is Run. Event capacity is limited to the first 300 registered participants and guests. Registration and fees vary by event; the organizer states there are no refunds, transfers, or deferrals.

Common race features: onsite camping, a marked course, aid roughly every 5 miles, and souvenir shirts, custom bibs, and finisher awards. Multi-day and 100-mile events use chip lap counting; some events award top male and female finishers. Shorter loop events do not allow pacers.
Course and site notes: the course is 100% dirt on ranch roads and single-track, arranged as two one-way 10-mile loops meeting at the center with vehicle access about every 10 miles. Ribbons mark loops and turns; blue ribbon indicates wrong way. Dogs are not allowed on course. A per-person ranch fee is charged daily and is payable at runner check-in in cash. The organizer may amend or cancel the event for safety, permit, or health reasons. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
