Just Survive 125
The Just Survive 125 is a 125 miles out-and-back ultramarathon on Florida's Ocean to Lake Hiking Trail, running from Hobe Sound Beach to Lake Okeechobee and back. Runners have a 48 hour time limit to complete the course. There are no aid stations and no crew support on the route.
The trail passes through pine flatwoods, cypress swamps, wet prairies, and palmetto scrub. Participants should expect water crossings, mud, sand, heat, humidity, and periods of darkness. Large portions of the course have limited or no cell service, and race success depends on preparation, pacing, nutrition, hydration, and on-the-trail problem solving.
Runners prepare four supply buckets with nutrition, hydration, gear, and essentials. Volunteers transport and monitor these buckets at designated locations approximately 15.5 miles apart. The event is organized by members of the local trail running community with support from volunteers from the Florida Trail Association's Loxahatchee Chapter. The participant guide contains detailed information for the race weekend. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
