ABOUT THE RACE
DAYTONA 100 is a rare ultramarathon opportunity, running entirely along Florida's East Coast barrier island, on pavement--paralleling the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway the entire distance. Run 100 miles, 50 miles or 50 kilometers, with or without a support crew*--or as a team of six--to an ideal finish line celebration at the foot of the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse. This flat and fast course is an excellent choice for your first ultra or to set your own P.R. Join us on December 12, 2026 for your new "favorite" race--the 12th Annual DAYTONA 100--and experience the camaraderie and support for which ultras are famous!

Ultra Sports is excited to announce our new Daytona 100 “official” race charity, “Port in the Storm Homeless Youth Center” in St. Augustine. “Port in the Storm” is an established program of the St. Augustine Society (STAsociety.org) whose goal is to end homelessness in the community. “Port in the Storm Homeless Youth Center” provides 24 beds of safe emergency shelter and support for young adults ages 18–24 experiencing homelessness. Beyond a safe place to stay and meals, youth receive individualized case management, mental wellness support, help completing their high school diploma and connections to resources that can help them move forward. Every service is focused on helping young adults move from homelessness and uncertainty toward stability, self-sufficiency and a safe place to call home. The goal is to nurture potential, promote self-esteem and prepare each person for a productive life beyond the streets. We urge you to consider their important work--and donate generously--by viewing www.STAsociety.org.
