Who We Are! What Is the Southern Tour?
The Southern Tour Ultra was founded in 2013. Tom Clifford, owner and founder of Without Limits, in collaboration with the Wilmington Health Foundation wanted to put on a running festival for the regional running community. Our goal is to have a competitive environment for teams and individuals and also have a fun environment for families and friends.
We have several events within Southern Tour - A 50 mile individual open event, 50K individual open event, 50 mile age graded team relay, and Last Man Standing Event.
All of these events are inviting to different types of people. From die hard ultra marathoners to the runners who just love to show up and enjoy the atmosphere without running "too far"
You should expect the following at Southern Tour:
- Trail Running
- Classic Rock and String Banjo Music
- Camp Fires
- Beer and more Beer
- Live Music
- Camaraderie
- Great times with friends and teams
- Camping
- BBQ
Our goal is to create a Woodstock feel where you can enjoy yourself, let loose, have fun, run hard, and simply enjoy life and running for 48 hours. Come run the Southern Tour Ultra, you won't regret it!
