Blackbeard’s Revenge 100 is one of the most unique ultra marathons on the East Coast—a 100 Mile, 100K, and Relay race held March 20–21, 2027, on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This point-to-point ultra takes runners, ruckers, and relay teams across the entire length of the OBX, from Corolla to Hatteras, along 100% paved coastal roads. Expect wind, salt air, and a finish line celebration like no other. Whether you’re chasing your first buckle or adding another ultra to your logbook, Blackbeard’s Revenge 100 is a race that tests grit, builds community, and creates unforgettable stories.
The Outer Banks are as unpredictable as the sea. One year it may be 80 degrees, the next it may be 20. Winds can shift from calm to brutal in minutes. The road is flat, but it stretches endlessly, testing your resolve and your mental grit. Runners don’t complain—they expect the challenge and embrace it. As race director Libby Swor says:
“The race is salty, and treacherous, and fickle. And no one’s complaining: they expect that, and understand they’re there for the challenges.”
This isn’t just an ultra marathon—it’s a full-on pirate adventure. Runners (a.k.a. Ultra Pirates) pick their own pirate name for their race bib, meaning you might be chasing down Captain WeirdBeard, running alongside Mad Molly, or finishing next to Luke the Lionheart.
Blackbeard’s Revenge 100 welcomes a wide range of athletes:
This race is approachable for back-of-packers and exciting for competitive athletes—everyone is part of the same ultra-pirate crew.
Blackbeard’s Revenge 100 is more than a race—it’s a test of endurance, spirit, and community on the Outer Banks. With pirate energy, coastal grit, and a crew that celebrates every finisher, this ultra marathon belongs on your calendar.
Are you pirate enough to face the challenge? Secure your spot at the 2027 Blackbeard’s Revenge 100 and become part of the legend.
