Ocean's 26.2 Relay Race and 6k run and Ruck
This event offers a marathon distance relay and a separate 6k race at the Hammock Community Center in Palm Coast, Florida. Teams of two or three runners or ruckers share the marathon distance on a three loop course that starts, ends and exchanges in the same transition area. The Atlantic Ocean is nearby along much of the course.
Distances and formats
- 26.2 miles relay for 2 or 3 person teams
- 26.2 miles solo marathon with a 6.5 hour cutoff
- 6k (3.7 miles) on Mala Compra Trails, single loop
The loop course uses hard packed trail and boardwalk for most sections, with some sidewalk along A1A and Mala Compra Road. One person from each team runs at a time while teammates remain in the transition area for rest and exchanges. Ruck relay teams follow the same team format as running teams.
Team categories are Male, Female and Coed. Each team must designate a team captain who registers and pays for the entire team before inviting members to register. Awards are planned for top teams in multiple categories, as well as top finishers in the 6k and masters divisions. Ruckers receive a patch and a custom medal.
The event partners with Sombrero Outreach Foundation, a 501c3 organization that supports local financial need and nonprofit projects. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
