About the Event

Experience the unique and rugged beauty of Louisiana's hidden gem at the Red Dirt Ultra 100k & 50k, February 21, 2026. This beloved event, celebrating its 10th edition, traverses the stunning Sandstone and Caroline Dormon Trails in the Kisatchie National Forest, offering a classic "Louisiana tough" course of loose sand, rolling climbs, stream crossings, and serene runnable stretches beneath towering longleaf pines. With a true community spirit, the aid stations are manned by experienced ultrarunners who provide exceptional support, including vegan options, ensuring every runner is well-cared for on their journey.

Organized by runner-director Fawn Hernandez, the race is known for its welcoming atmosphere and meticulous attention to runner needs. The generous 18-hour cutoff for the 100k (actually 66 miles) makes it an accessible yet challenging goal for both seasoned and aspiring ultrarunners. Secure your spot early to take advantage of the anniversary discount and join a special southern trail tradition where the red dirt, bayou views, and unparalleled camaraderie create an unforgettable running adventure.
