RegisterDeath by 5k is coming BACK to Florida!
Think you have what it takes to finish the Death by 5k challenge?
Taking place at the beautiful property of Adventures Unlimited Outdoor Center, Death by 5k requires participants to run (or walk) ten 5ks over 24 hours, starting each 5k 2.5 hours apart. (8 am, 1030 am, 1 pm, 330 pm, 6 pm, 830 pm, 11 pm, 130 am, 4 am, 630 am)
Race HQ will be the event venue known as The Barn and the course will be a loop through the property, alongside Coldwater Creek. The route will be mostly single track with lots of roots and some rocks, along with some atv packed sand roads.
Hot food will be served at 830 am, 130 pm, 9 pm and 430 am. Snacks will be available throughout the event. Water and Gatorade will be available as well.
Participants can spend time between 5ks in a camping tent, hammock, under a pop up tent, or in their vehicles. Tent campsites will be available in the adjacent grass field. These sites are $20 for one tent, up to four people per tentsite. The tent camping fee will be collected at packet pick up. The tent camping field will have plenty of room and sites will be first come first served. The tent camping field is within a short walk to the start line and race hq.
Participants will receive an event shirt, along with other event swag. Finishers will receive one of the coveted handmade finisher's coffin.
Initial registration will be limited to 175 participants. After that, a waitlist will be opened. Additional participants may be selected if slots are opened.

Miltonis in the Florida Panhandle. It prides itself on its large variety of outdoor activities. Downtown sits on the banks of the Blackwater River, and the vista of early 1900s buildings overlooking the water is the iconic image of the town. Canoeing, kayaking, and innertubing are available on the rivers just north of town, beaches are located to the south, and a local rails-to-trails project has created an impressive, 14-mile (22-km) bike path beginning in downtown Milton.
