RegiWelcome to the Destin Beach Ultra Runs, Home of the Destin 50 and 24hr Sand Run World Record!
In the past 3 years our runners have raised over $100,000 for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation to educate the children of our fallen spec ops heroes.
These running races takes place on the white sand beaches of Destin, Florida and next to the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. That's right, the entire 50 mile/50K/relay races/24hr are in the sand!
If you want to run a race like no other, in a location with beauty that can not be matched anywhere in the world...then this is your race! Bring your family and spend some vacation days at the start/finish. Just read what last year's runners had to say here. Maybe an ultra is not your style? Check out our 'Son of a Beach' events: 5K and Athlete Challenge.
