Fondren Urban Ultra
The Fondren Urban Ultra is a 12 hour timed road race for individual runners held in the Fondren neighborhood of Jackson, Mississippi. The event uses a loop course that begins and ends at Fondren Church, where a staging area is available for competitors to place nutrition, tents, and coolers. The loop covers 3.1 miles and includes a mix of hills and flat sections on paved roads.
The 3.1 mile loop is certified as a 5k by USA Track and Field. Mississippi state records can be set on this course for the following distances and formats:
- 50k distance for Mississippi state records.
- 100k distance for Mississippi state records.
- 12 hour timed race for Mississippi state records.
Race logistics include a single aid station at the start and finish area offering water, Tailwind, and sweet and salty food. The race uses chip timing. Individual racers must check in at the timing station each lap. Runners may take breaks but must remain in the staging area while off course. To be counted toward the timed result, a full 5k lap must be completed within the 12 hour event period.
Location: Fondren Church, 3327 Old Canton Road, Jackson, MS 39216, United States. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
