About the race
The Cross Florida Individual Time Trial is an off road, coast to coast endurance event that combines bikepacking, packrafting, and ultra running. The route runs across varied terrain and is presented as a long personal challenge.
- 250 to 300 miles mixed terrain route.
- Short or long packraft options reduce distance by 40 to 50 miles.
Navigation is by GPX file only; no cue sheets are provided. Participants must use a GPS device and a tracking device is required to enable online tracking of progress. A recommended GPS model is the Garmin Etrex 20 or better.
Route information and supporting files are distributed around October 12 and are licensed per individual. Entry requires a minimum donation of $80, which covers the route file, trail guide, waypoint restock file, and one souvenir. After route release there are no refunds for the donation. A limited shuttle option is available for 30 participants, with pickup in Inglis and transport to New Smyrna Beach; the shuttle fee is $130 and shuttle refunds are available if canceled at least four weeks before the event.
Rules include completing the route under human power except in medical emergencies, no drafting, no pre arranged support or SAG vehicles, and obtaining supplies only from commercial establishments along or near the route. Participants must provide photographic or video evidence at three checkpoints as instructed by the organizer. There is no overall time limit and a mass start is used for those who start with the group. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
