Delirium Ultra 24 Hour Endurance Race

Delirium Ultra 24 Hour Endurance Race is held in Beaufort, South Carolina, on October 24, 2026. Three timed trail formats start together at 8:00 AM: a 6-hour, a 12-hour, and a 24-hour race. Instead of a fixed distance, you cover as many miles as you can within your time limit, and everyone who is still moving records a result. That structure makes the event welcoming to first-timers and hardened ultrarunners alike.

Choose the 6-hour if you want to test the waters of ultra distance without committing to a full day; most runners can reach marathon distance or beyond in that window. The 12-hour is a natural step up for runners chasing a 50-mile equivalent, while the 24-hour brings the full challenge of a night on your feet. For any of the three, your training should emphasize time on feet, consistent fueling, and early walk breaks. Coastal South Carolina terrain tends to be flat, so the race is about pacing, not climbing.
