Chasing the Sun • 2027

About the event

Chasing the Sun is not your typical race—it’s an endurance adventure built for grit, strategy and pure determination. Set on a 6km looped course, you’ll chase every mile against the clock. Choosing your challenge: 3 hours, 6 hours, or go sun up to sun down. Take it on solo or team up in duos, trios, or quads to keep the momentum rolling. Whether you’re pushing your personal limits or feeding off your team’s energy, every lap brings you closer to the ultimate test. How far can you go before the sun sets on your race?
