The Magnificent Bastards Challenge

About the event

On July 24, 2027, the Last Man Standing race honors fallen KIA Marines from the 2nd Battalion 4th Marines. This endurance challenge features one-mile loops with 300 feet of elevation gain, pushing participants to complete laps until only one remains standing. The course is designed for resilience and dedication, culminating in a fast final lap where competitors can showcase their speed; the fastest time earns a special prize.
For those seeking a more reflective experience, an Honor Lap allows runners to pay tribute at any point during the event by completing just one loop at their own pace. All registration fees go directly to Northeast Slopes, supporting important community initiatives.
Additionally, Last Rucker Standing offers a unique challenge for ruckers carrying weighted packs—35 pounds for males and 25 pounds for females throughout an eight-hour period. The weight must be in a pack rather than other forms like sandbags or vests. Participants face strict checks on their load at the start, finish, and randomly during the race to ensure compliance with rules.
Early registrants by June 25th receive custom Race Mozey silkies as part of the event's memorabilia, adding an extra layer of recognition for those who commit early to this tribute run.
