Delirium Ultra 24 Hour Run
The Delirium Ultra 24 Hour Run is an endurance event held in Beaufort, South Carolina. The race takes place on a closed course consisting of a 1.65-mile loop on hard-packed trails. The route is designed to showcase the local foliage and wildlife of the Lowcountry.
The event offers three distinct timed durations:
- 24 hours
- 12 hours
- 6 hours
Participants compete to log the greatest number of miles within their chosen time frame. The course features a single aid station that runners pass at the completion of every lap. Scheduled food offerings at the aid station include chicken noodle soup, hamburgers, pizza, and a pancake breakfast. Runners must provide their own specific nutritional requirements if needed.
A dedicated staging and camping area, known as "Tent City," is located directly on the course. Primitive camping is permitted from Friday through Sunday, and staging spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Parking is situated adjacent to the start and finish area.
The race utilizes chip timing with both bibs and ankle transponders. For safety, all participants in the 12-hour and 24-hour categories must carry a headlamp or handheld light from dusk until dawn. All finishers who complete their full timed event receive a medal, and individual runners in the 24-hour race who reach 100 miles or more are awarded a belt buckle.
