Jack Bristol Lake Waramaug Ultra Races : April 25, 2027
The event on April 25, 2027 takes place in Kent, CT around Lake Waramaug. It is the 53rd anniversary of the Lake Waramaug ultras. Distances offered include:
- 100K

- 50K
The course uses rolling loops on primarily flat, paved roads circling the lake. Runners follow a short clockwise out then counter clockwise laps around the lake. The 50K consists of three 7.6 mile laps plus a 1.9 mile out and back to the State Park finish. The 50 Mile is six laps around the lake. The 100K is seven laps plus a 2.3 mile out and back to the State Park finish. The start and finish are at the state park near the intersection of Lake Waramaug Road and Anderson Acres Extension.
There are four well stocked aid stations positioned around the loop, with segments roughly between 1.7 and 2.2 miles. Post race food and drinks are provided for all runners. Bib pickup begins one hour before each race.
Time limits are set at 12 hours for the 50K and 13 hours for the 50 Mile and 100K; race officials may grant extensions at their discretion for safety and feasibility. Entries include a hi tech T shirt, finish medals for 50K and 50 Mile finishers, a buckle for 100K finishers, and a special Mount to Coast medal. T shirt sizes are not guaranteed after March 15. Registration closes April 20, 2027. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
