UltraTrax South Carolina

Aiken, SC
You’re In. Welcome to UltraTrax South Carolina. On May 15, 2027, you’ll take on a full day of movement, challenge, and time on the trails at Stable View Farm in Aiken, South Carolina. For the first time, UltraTrax is heading to South Carolina. Set across Stable View’s expansive countryside, the course will wind through a landscape of wooded trails, gently rolling terrain, open stretches, and quiet corners of the property. Stable View sits on 1,000 acres with access to additional conserved woods and trails, creating a course that feels removed from it all while still offering terrain that lets you settle into a rhythm and keep moving. Whether you’re here to walk 7 miles or push all the way to 28, the challenge is yours to define. 10 hours. One 7-mile loop. Four distances. How far will you go? Complete your goal within the 10-hour event window. Want another layer of challenge? Take it on with a 10, 20, or 35 lb. ruck or weighted vest. The course will be clearly marked from start to finish, with well-stocked aid stations positioned along the route to keep you fueled and moving. Trek Day Saturday, May 15, 2027 Stable View Farm, Aiken, SC The start line is open between 7am-10am and is divided into corrals based on distance. 28 milers get started at 7am, 21 milers at 7:45am, 14 milers at 8:30am, and 7 milers at 9:15am. UltraTrax is not a race, but it is a timed endurance event. You’ll have up to 10 hours to complete your chosen distance. Move at your pace. Take breaks when you need them. Then keep going. Bib Pickup Your bib may be mailed to you in advance or picked up on event morning. Participants registering after April 20, 2027 must pick up their bib in person. Taking on the Ruck Challenge? If you registered for a weighted division, you’ll need to bring your own ruck, backpack, or weighted vest. Your pack will be weighed before you begin. Everything in the pack counts toward your required weight except perishable food and drinks. What’s Waiting at the Finish Finishers will receive: A custom UltraTrax finisher medal (Grey Wolf Medal for 28 and 21 milers, Trail Wolf Medal for 14 and 7 milers)UltraTrax event T-shirtUltraTrax patchAdditional swag for weighted divisions After your trek, stick around and enjoy the atmosphere at Stable View. The property’s Pavilion serves as a gathering place for its trail community and overlooks the surrounding grounds, making it a great setting to recover, refuel, and celebrate after the miles are done. Friends and family are welcome to join. What to Expect at South Carolina A Rolling Southern Trail Experience Travel through Stable View’s gently rolling countryside on a mix of wooded trails and open stretches. The property maintains an extensive trail network used for walking, hiking, running, and other outdoor events, giving this course a natural flow without the sustained mountain climbs found at some UltraTrax locations. A Challenge You Choose There is no single definition of success at UltraTrax. Walk your first 7 miles, chase 28, or add weight and see what you can carry. Support Along the Way Expect a well-marked course, stocked aid stations, event staff, and a community of people working toward their own goals alongside you. Parking Complimentary onsite parking will be available at Stable View Farm. Stable View Farm is located at 117 Stable Drive, Aiken, SC 29801. More detailed arrival, parking, course, and event-day information will be sent as Trek Day gets closer. Move With Purpose UltraTrax is all about spending more time outside, moving farther than you thought you could, and helping protect the places that make those experiences possible. A portion of UltraTrax proceeds supports efforts to protect and preserve the outdoor spaces we depend on. You’re officially part of the pack! We’ll see you in South Carolina.

Cottonmouth 8 Mile & Beerlay

Greenville, SC
🐍🍺 Welcome to the Annual Cottonmouth Beerlay! 🍺🐍   Run fast. Drink hard. Don’t get bit. What do you get when you combine trail running, random beers, and your most competitive (and possibly least coordinated) friends? The Cottonmouth Beerlay, baby! This wild race at the beautiful Lakewood Nature Preserve is back for another year of glorious chaos, beer-fueled miles, and unforgettable memories. You can run it solo if you're a one-person party machine, or grab a few beer-loving buddies and tackle it as a relay team of 2–4. Either way, you're in for 8 miles of pure, ridiculous fun. Are you fast enough to outrun the Cottonmouth? Or will the beer bite first?  🐾 How It Works: Each lap is a 2-mile trail loop through the preserve. You’ll do it 4 times total. Before every lap, runners must consume a randomly-selected beer from the BYOB community pool Solo runners do it all themselves. Relay teams tag in one runner per lap. 🍻 21+ only

Here's how it goes: Run 1 mile → crush 2 donuts Run 1 mile → crush 2 donuts Run 1 mile → crush 2 donuts Final mile → sprint (or survive) to the finish Simple on paper. Brutal in reality. This race is a test of pacing, discipline, and your ability to keep it all together—literally. Because here’s the catch: if you throw up at any point… you’re out. DNF. No exceptions. Whether you're chasing a podium spot or just trying to keep your donuts down, the Glaze Craze is equal parts competition and chaos.
