Lost in Miami Ultra
About the race
A fixed time remix with no set route and no loops! You choose your adventure through the streets of Miami.
Runners will have 18 hours to journey through Miami and navigate their way to required landmarks throughout the day. You will receive a list of locations with landmarks a few days before the race. You can plot your path or take a more plan-as-you-go approach, whether tackling the most efficient route or taking the scenic run around the city.
Rankings are based on the most miles accumulated. This is meant to be a fun, lighthearted challenge and adventure that you can take on by yourself or with other runners. Runners are encouraged to form partnerships or teams to get Lost in Miami together.

Location
City insight: Miami
Miami is a coastal city in the southeast of Florida, USA, and the county seat of Miami-Dade County. It is the second-most populous city proper in Florida and has the third-largest skyline in the U.S. Summers are hot, humid and stormy, so winter and early spring are the best seasons to race.
