Midsommar | Sun Loop Ultra

Welcome to Midsommar: Sun Loop Ultra

Welcome to Midsommar: Sun Loop Ultra, a late-July test of pure grit, endurance, and psychological fortitude.

Set during the absolute peak of the summer heat, Midsommar challenges runners to conquer a deceivingly straightforward 5-mile loop under the relentless July sun. Whether you are tackling your very first 5-mile run or attempting to survive 100 miles in the midsommar glare, every single distance will test what you’re made of.

There are no dark forests to hide in, no cool mountain breeze coming to save you—just you, the loop, and the sun.

The Challenge

You will run a repeating 5-mile loop starting and ending at The Maypole—our central hub, main aid station, and race party HQ.

• Convenience: Every loop brings you right back through the heart of the event.
• Hydration: You'll never be more than a few miles from ice, liquid hydration, and a cheering crowd.
• Mental Battle: Stepping back out into the heat for one more lap is where the real challenge begins.

Distances Offered

• 5 Miles: A fast, fiery summer dash.
• 15 Miles: The ultimate hot-weather workout.
• 50K: A true test of heat management.
• 50 Miles: Halfway to insanity.
• 100 Miles: The ultimate Midsommar rite of passage.
• Night 5 Miles: Suns gone but the loop isn’t.
• Night 50k: Knock the 50k out at night or maybe add it on from another morning distance.
