The Jackalope Jam is a 6-hour, 12-hour, 24-hour, 48-hour, 72-hour and 100-hour timed event format, where you record the greatest distance possible during your chosen duration while running, walking, hiking, or choosing to compete in our separate ruck divisions. New in 2025 you can also compete as a 2-6 person team in our 24-Hour Relay.

Every participant receives a medal in addition to buckles earned for solo competitors completing 100 kilometers, or more. The event is held at 7IL Ranch allowing for open access all week, course-side camping, great facilities, and beautiful landscape. The out-and-back course will be exactly 2-miles (one mile out, one mile back) on a short-grass/gravel farm road. There will be one main aid station at the start/finish, fully stocked with our standard Texas-sized ultra buffet support including real food served for our overnighters. Runners are also encouraged to set up their own tent and support area along the course line. It is common for runners to take long rest breaks, sleep, or even leave and return later to complete more miles. Only fully complete laps will count toward your distance (2-miles at a time). Solo competitors completing 100km or up will receive a buckle. Medals for all sub-100k distances. Bonus patches for ruck participants.

**Relay Pricing and Format** : Each time an additional team member registers, the previous members will receive a $10 refund for every new person added. All members pay the same amount, the larger the team the lower the per-person registration fee. The relay is an open format, no designated order or number of laps per member is required. The only rule is that you can only exchange runners in the exchange area at the start/finish after completed laps. Members of teams can not be adjusted after the registration period closes (changes can be made by the captain until registration closes, adding/removing members, changing divisions, etc.) Teams can compete in one of three divisions: all male, all female, or coed (minimum 2 female).
