Coast to Coaster Road Race
Coast to Coaster is a 232 mile road journey run in the Sandusky, Ohio area from April 22 to April 24, 2027. The event is described as No bus-No hotel and uncrewed; participants run on public roads and are responsible for their own well-being. The race is presented in the spirit of HOTS or LAVS.
All participants are provided with GPS trackers and a shareable link that shows their location. The route passes through towns with stores, restaurants, and hotels, so participants should plan where to rest and resupply. Past editions included a stop for a tour of the Ohio State Reformatory; a similar stop may occur again.
Rules emphasize safety and respect. Crews are allowed to carry supplies and crewed runners may shelter in a crew vehicle, but runners may not be transported by any vehicle. If behavior endangers safety, the participant will be removed from the course. Runners must stay on the course and correct any navigation errors by returning to the route where they left it.
A new 100 mile option will run as an out and back on much of the same course, starting at King’s Island in Mason, Ohio on April 24, 2027. Registration closes April 18, 2027. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
