Run the River Ultra Challenge and Relay

The Run the River Ultra Challenge and Relay, organized by the City of Petal, takes place at Petal River Park along the Leaf River. Participants can choose to run individually or in teams of 2-4, navigating a looped course for a 6-hour duration. The event features meadow lanes and single-track trails with scenic views. Runners aim to complete as many laps as possible, with only one team member on the course at a time. It's a tailgating-style event encouraging participation from all skill levels, with divisions for male, female, and co-ed teams.
