About Our Event
The Regal Beagle Ultra is a 50k, 25k, and 5 mile course that highlights the best of the 404 acre Bath Nature Preserve and the 41 acre Bath Community Park . This loop course starts at the Bath Community Park and traverses wetlands, woodlands, and rolling hills. Terrain will be a mix of paved and gravel roads, and dirt and grass trails. The 50k will be six 5-ish mile loops and the 25k will be three 5-ish mile loops with 2 aid stations per loop. The race will be cupless so please remember to bring a handheld water bottle.
A portion of the proceeds from this year's race will benefit the Bath Nature Preserve and the University of Akron Field Station. Make sure you like and follow our Facebook Page

*Course limit 8 hours. There will be no early starts. No pacers for the 50k (or any other distance), it's only 31 miles!
COURSE elevation for those interested- about 400’ of gain per loop. 50k runners must start the last loop by 2:30pm.
*****For 2024 we have added a 6 person relay, with each person running the 5 mile loop (loop is slightly over 5 miles to make the 50k)***** Team captains will be required to register their teams in advance, so emails will be needed for each teammate to complete the registrations for each individual runner.
