The Joust 12hr & 24hr

The Joust 24hr race offers two exciting challenges: 1. The Full 24hr Challenge: Participants can choose to compete solo, as a team of 2, a team of 3-5, or a team of 6-8. 2. The 12 Hour Challenge: Here, the goal is to cover 50 miles within 12 hours, allowing participants to relax upon completing this distance. Both the Joust 24hr (J24) and the 12hr (J12) races are off-road events designed for solo runners and teams. They take place on a looped course measuring approximately 5.5 miles, with slight variations each year due to the private farm land terrain. The course is well-marked, marshaled, easy to navigate, and relatively flat. Solo runners who cover 100 miles or more and teams that achieve 200 miles or more will earn the prestigious Joust Buckle. Additionally, the Kids Joust race now features an inflatable rope maze as part of the course. New for 2026: The J6. Yes, take on the shortest challenge over six hours. Test yourself. Can you do a marathon in this time on the Joust course? No matter if you can't, the only requirement is a single lap - then enjoy the buzz of the campsite and supporting all the other runners. The J24, J12 and the J6 all start at the same time - 12:00 on the Saturday.
