Start your watch and climb aboard the airplane for the ride up to 13,500 feet where you will leap out of a moving plane to begin your 50 or 100 mile ultra run. The 120mph, 2 mile (approx 10k feet) free-fall will last 50 seconds before you pull the parachute on your tandem skydive and quietly and calmly float (3,000 feet) back down to the safety of earth. Upon landing you will immediately climb out of your parachute and begin running to complete the worlds first ever Skydiving Ultra! We can pretty much assure that you will get a PR for your fastest mile and we can guarantee no other race has a steeper first couple of miles. The course consists of 2 main loops around a short asphalt driveway providing access to your drop bags every 3 miles. The surfaces are a mix of soft dirt and grass roads and take you through local sugar cane fields, along canals and offer plenty of opportunity to mingle with Florida wildlife! The specific logistics of getting a large group of people in the air and into a race such as this is very challenging. Start times and specifics might change slightly. Camping, bathrooms and showers will be available on site. We will also be able to offer a skydive only option with a $20 discounted rate to friends or family that might want to come and jump and not run. We will have games and activities for the kids and non-runners as well. Its set on a contained grassy lot with no traffic so you can bring the family, some lawn chairs and spectate the landing zone and runners. Makes for a perfect day.
