Chasing the Sun Endurance Run

About the Event

A multi loop trail run through the beautiful Robinson preserve in Bradenton Fl. This course is full of wildlife, scenery ( Tampa bay, Sky Way bridge and Anna Maria) and promises to deliver. This is a fantastic event for any one local to the area and also an amazing destination race. We will be announcing sponsors, our Charity partner and partner hotels in the near future so keep and eye open. Follow us on Facebook and IG for all the need to knows.

On course expect to run on pavement, sand and shell. A majority of the course is on sand and shell. Trail shoes are not required but suggested, as are gaiters. ALL runners (except 4.35 1 loop) are required to start the race with a water bottle, belt, hand held or vest. First aid station is at the 2 mile mark where you will have water, Gatorade, soda and snacks. Mile 3 will be a self serve water stop. Finish line will have water and snacks for finishers and loopers. If you are not stopping and continuing on course you will have a self serve station with water, Gatorade and snacks near the restrooms as you pass by start/finish.

This is a preserve so we kindly ask that all athletes leave it like you found it, carry your trash with you until you reach an aid station. We want this event to continue, so don't leave gel packs or water bottles on the ground. This course was designed to be beginner friendly and also challenging to those to like to push their limits. Its a great event for anyone wanting to get into running trails, a Ragnar type event or using this as a warm up to a bigger race.

As in our other events, T Shirts are an additional add on to try to keep cost down for you, we also know that not everyone wants a shirt. All finishers will receive a medal, along with snacks, post race food, drinks, ice baths and massage if you want. Food trucks will also be on site. AG awards for each event along with special finisher awards for marathon, 50k and All day athletes.

We hope to see you out there enjoying the beauty of Robinson preserve. Even if you are not participating we welcome you to come cheer on the athletes, hang out or even volunteer.
