Ollie's Ultra
Ollie's Ultra is a multi-distance endurance running event held December 4–5, 2026 in Chanute, KS at Santa Fe Park on the old Safari Golf Course. The course is USATF certified and uses a soft chat trail loop measured at 2.022 miles per full lap; GPS devices may read about 2.08 miles per loop.
The event stages multiple timed races on the same loop. Distances offered include:
- 48 hour
- 36 hour
- 24 hour
- 12 hour
- 6 hour
- 3 hour
Certain distances are eligible for state records. Full loops only will be counted for distance and scoring, and strict cutoff times apply; no loops completed after cutoffs will count. In the event of a tie, the time of completion of the last full loop is used as the tiebreaker.
A fully manned base aid station is located near the start/finish area with snacks, hot food options, water, and Tailwind. Runners may set up personal tents or camp near the aid station; nearby RV sites are available. Registration includes a T-shirt and a finisher award; hoodies are available for an extra cost. Custom awards are given to the top three in each division. Deferrals are valid for one year.
Course rules require solo completion of loops, carrying personal nutrition, and no strollers, dogs, or bikes. Pacers are permitted after 12 hours with one pacer on course per entrant at a time; pacer bibs are $5. Official timing will be provided.
