The MILE in Sarasota
The MILE takes place on March 13, 2027 at Celery Fields in Sarasota, Florida. The event is presented as a 12-hour endurance run using a last-runner-standing format.
Participants run repeated 1 mile laps. Each lap must be completed and the runner returned to the start before a set cutoff time, initially 17 minutes; organizers note the cutoff may be adjusted during the event to shorter times. Missing the cutoff eliminates a runner from further laps.
Registration opens on September 13, 2026 and closes on September 16, 2026. The registration fee is $75 and the field is limited to 150 spots.
Packet pick up is held on race day and each participant receives a gallon of water at packet pick up. A carb corner will be available at the staging area with items such as fruit, cookies, muffins, and noodles. Participants are expected to provide any additional water or food they need and to bring their own chairs or towels or blankets for resting.
The course runs on the hills of Celery Fields and offers notable views. Organizers mention that participants may hear the roar of the big cats as the event unfolds. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
