About the race
Riverbend Ultras 12 HR/50K takes place at the River Pavilion on Picnic Island in Riverbend Park, Jupiter, FL on September 11, 2027. The event is organized by Mule Racing and includes three participation options: a 12 hour event, a 50K, and a Fun Run.
The course runs along the Loxahatchee River on gravel trails and includes a section of the Lake to Ocean Trail. Runners pass through oaks and cabbage palms and frequently observe wildlife such as deer, turkey, turtles, raccoons, and many birds. Facilities include a large tiki hut with tables; participants may also bring 10'x10' pop up tents and there is ample space for day setups. There are no aid stations so participants must carry their own food, water, and fuel.
