Into the wild heart of Florida. The Everglades is unlike anywhere else on earth — a vast, slow-moving river of grass stretching 60 miles wide from Lake Okeechobee to Florida Bay. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, an International Biosphere Reserve, and a Wetland of International Importance, the Everglades is one of the most precious ecosystems on the planet. Your virtual half marathon follows the Anhinga Trail deep into the glades where alligators sun on the banks, roseate spoonbills wade in the shallows, and the silence is broken only by the cry of an osprey overhead. This isn't just a race. It's a journey into one of the last truly wild places in America. Run it from anywhere and earn your place among those who've faced the Swamp Thing.
