Last One Standing Ultra
Last One Standing Ultra is a self-supported ultra running event held on the asphalt Mayor's Loop in St. George. The course follows a roughly 6 mile loop that stays close to the Virgin River and offers viewpoints of the city. The event uses a repeated-lap format: each adult loop is scheduled every 90 minutes and runners must return to the start/finish within that interval to remain in the race. Runners who fail to complete a loop in time are eliminated. After 16 regular loops, a 17th final lap is run to determine the overall winners.
There is a kids division that uses a 5.3 mile loop. The kids loop follows the adult loop except it omits the first 0.7 mile out-and-back, and children may use non-motorized means of transport such as bikes, scooters, rollerblades, or unicycles.
Packet pickup and the primary start/finish area are located at Crosby Family Confluence Park (2099 S Convention Center Dr, St. George, UT). The full park is made available on race day for personal campsites; campsites are not reservable. An aid station is positioned approximately halfway around the loop at St. James Park (741 St. James Ln, St. George, UT) and will provide water and Gatorade but is unattended by race staff.
Awards include a finishers medal after the first loop, a lap button after each completed lap, a belt buckle for completing all 17 loops, and champion prizes for overall male and female winners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
