Race details and logistics
The event is based at the Hammock Community Center, 79 Mala Compra Rd, Palm Coast, FL 32137. The 6k follows Mala Compra Trails and runs loop 2 once. Most of the course is hard-packed trail and boardwalk; remaining sections are sidewalk along A1A and Mala Compra Rd. Team categories are Male, Female, and Coed; ruck relay teams follow the same categories. Each team must have a designated team captain who registers and pays for the entire team, then invites members to register. Awards are planned for top teams in the 2- and 3-person divisions and for top finishers in the 6k, with additional ruck prizes and a random ruck gear giveaway. The event partners with the Sombrero Outreach Foundation. Registration closes January 2, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
