About this race

Are you ready to test your wits, choose your own adventure, and support an incredible cause? Welcome to the Last Stand Adventure Race—a one-of-a-kind outdoor challenge that is part 5K, part scavenger hunt, part woodland romp, and pure fun! 

The Challenge: You Control the Course

Forget standard, boring race routes. In this race, there is no fixed course.
The Mission: Leave the starting line with a map, find 5 to 7 hidden control points, and collect a unique token at each one.
The Distance: Expect to cover about 3 to 4 miles total to hit every point.
The Strategy: How you get there is entirely up to you! Conquer the map in a clockwise circle, tackle a counter-clockwise zig-zag, or create your own wild shortcut through the woods.
No Compass Needed: Just bring your sharp eyes and a sense of adventure. We will even send out the checkpoint map well in advance so you can scout the terrain and plan your winning strategy beforehand.


The Victory & The Swag


Whether you are sprinting for the podium or enjoying a scenic morning in nature, everyone walks away a winner.
The Podium: The first three competitors to return to the finish line with all tokens in hand will claim ultimate bragging rights and be declared the official champions.

Family Winners:  The first family unit to finish will win the "Family Award".
The Loot: Every single participant will score awesome race amenities, including a premium commemorative event shirt and a custom finisher belt buckle to show off your achievement.


Fun for Everyone (Families & Walkers Welcome!)
While there is a thrilling element of challenge, this event is ultimately about community, fresh air, and having a blast. Walkers are warmly welcomed, and it makes for a perfect, action-packed morning activity with the family. Gather your crew, explore the woods, and hunt for tokens together!

Racing for a Greater Purpose
Your footsteps make a real difference. A portion of all race proceeds will go directly to the Semper Fi & America's Fund, providing critical support and vital assistance to wounded military personnel, veterans, and their families with severe medical needs.  Donations are welcome!
