The Sweat Swat n Swear, set for May 24, 2026, invites runners to conquer the scenic, yet challenging, trails of the Citrus Tract in the Withlacoochee Forest, Inverness, Florida. Offering 50K, 25K, and 10M distances, this event promises a memorable day for trail enthusiasts. Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 89F and lows around 65F, alongside a 17% chance of precipitation, making proper hydration paramount.

Each distance features a single-loop course, starting and finishing at the Holder Mine Campground, traversing the "A, B, and C loops" of the forest. The terrain is characterized by rugged, unpaved trails, complete with challenging Florida hills, roots, and rocks that demand focus and careful footing. While the course provides ample shade, the heat combined with the rolling elevation makes for a truly grueling experience. Aid stations, stocked with water, GU Roctane, soda, pickles, chips, PB&J, fruit, and ice, are strategically placed every 5 miles on average, with full aid every 8-10 miles. Runners are required to carry their own hydration method.

Beyond the challenging course, Sweat Swat n Swear cultivates a vibrant race atmosphere. Finishers are celebrated with a custom award and invited to a post-race picnic to share their trail tales. For those seeking an extended adventure, camping is available at Holder Mine Campground, complete with a Saturday pasta dinner and a Firefly 5K Fun Run. The event also offers a unique team relay option, where three runners can tackle different distances together.
