Death at DuPuis (A Backyard Event)

Death at DuPuis is a last person standing running event on February 6, 2027 in Canal Point, FL at the DuPuis Management Area. The event is organized by Mule Racing as a not for profit and as an Athletic Soul Foundation event, with organizer materials and donations supporting the Loxahatchee chapter of the Florida Trail Association.

All competitors run repeated loops of a set 4.166667 mile course. The race restarts at the top of the hour each hour and continues until only one runner can complete the loop on time or everyone withdraws. Participants receive warning whistles at three, two and one minute before the hour. Coolers, chairs and canopies will be available at the start finish area on a first come, first served basis.

Race costs cover shirts, portable toilets, timing and awards for finisher and non finisher placements. There is a stated goal of a minimum $2000 donation to the Loxahatchee chapter and the event reports having given back more than $10,000 to the Florida Trail Association in prior years. The entry fee is non refundable if a participant drops, in which case the fee is placed in the donation pot, although the organizer may provide assistance for financial hardship concerns.

The DuPuis Management Area is described as a multi use natural area of about 21,875 acres with ponds, wet prairies, cypress domes, pine flatwoods, hiking and equestrian trails and a nature center. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
