About the event
Join us on the beautiful Sandstone and Caroline Dormon Trail in Kisatchie National Forest for the 9th edition of the Red Dirt Ultra. This rugged trail consist of loose and hardpacked sand, stream crossings, climbing and descending, long runnable sections through the long leaf pines and a jaunt alongside the Kisatchie Bayou.
What makes this race so special is the community. The aid stations are manned by experienced ultra runners who know what it takes to get to the finish line! Our volunteers even provide vegan food options at the finish line and at the mid- loop aid station.
PLEASE NOTE: the 50K is actually about 33 miles and the 100K is about 66 miles! The cutoff time for all races is midnight which allows 18 hours for the 100K. The 50K relay completes the 33 mile loop between two runners. The first runner completes the first 19 miles of the race course and then stops at a designated spot on the trail to meet their second runner who runs the last 14 miles of the loop.
The race directors, Fawn Hernandez, Justin Hernandez, and Jimmy Tarbell, are avid ultra runners and have all participated in Red Dirt before taking over the race! That's how you know you'll be well looked after at the Red Dirt Ultra!
