Blackbeard's Revenge 100 Ultra & Relay

Embark on a swashbuckling adventure at Blackbeard's Revenge 100 Ultra & Relay on March 21, 2026, traversing the historic and breathtaking Outer Banks of North Carolina. This unique point-to-point ultra marathon offers distances of 100 miles and 100 kilometers, alongside a 100-mile relay, inviting solo runners, ruckers, and relay teams to conquer the legendary coastal stretch from Corolla to Hatteras. Runners will navigate a 100% paved, flat course that promises endless ocean views and invigorating salt air, though the challenge is real. The Outer Banks are known for their temperamental weather, with typical race day conditions seeing highs around 63F and lows around 42F, and a 12% chance of precipitation; however, be prepared for unpredictable winds and temperature swings that truly test your mettle.

What truly sets Blackbeard's Revenge apart is its immersive pirate spirit. Participants embrace a custom pirate name on their bibs, adding a playful yet challenging atmosphere to the journey. The course is well-supported with aid stations stocked with water, gels, electrolyte drinks, and real food options, offering crucial opportunities to refuel and recharge, especially during the mentally demanding night hours. The 100-mile race kicks off from Historic Corolla Park, while the 100K begins at Jennette's Pier, both converging towards the celebratory finish line at The Wreck Tiki Bar in Hatteras. Finishers are not only rewarded with a custom medal or belt buckle but also a well-deserved meal and beverage, capping off an unforgettable experience that blends a rigorous physical challenge with a vibrant, inclusive community spirit.
