Sparks Biggest Little Ultra

Nestled along the picturesque Sparks Marina on Howard Drive in Sparks, Nevada, The Biggest Little Ultra offers an unparalleled endurance challenge for runners and walkers alike. This unique race spans two days, giving participants ample time to set personal records or simply enjoy a leisurely pace through scenic surroundings.
The event features fixed-time options ranging from 3 hours to the grueling 48-hour marathon, as well as distance-based races of 50 miles and 100 miles.

Runners will appreciate the well-lit and paved path, which allows them to focus on their pace without worrying about navigation or rough terrain. Aid stations are conveniently located at the start/finish line, offering a variety of refreshments including vegan options throughout the day. Pacers are permitted but must adhere to strict rules regarding bike use.
The marina itself adds charm with its fishing pier, dog park, and sandy beaches, providing runners with stunning views as they loop around multiple times. Whether you're aiming for speed or endurance, The Biggest Little Ultra offers a supportive atmosphere where participants can push their limits while enjoying the serene beauty of Sparks Marina.
