The Tale of Blackbeard's Revenge 100

Aye, ye ask why we call it Blackbeard’s Revenge? Pull up a chair, Matey, and hear this tale...

The Outer Banks be a fickle beast—temps can swing from 80 to 20, the wind’ll whip ye sideways, and though the roads be flat, they stretch on like the horizon, testin’ yer spirit. Plunderin’ these parts (er, runnin’) is a grand adventure—but make no mistake, she’ll make ye earn yer reward!

Be ye pirate enough for the challenge? Brave the 100 Mile or 100K solo… or gather yer crew and conquer it relay-style! Runners, Ruckers, and Chariot Teams all welcome aboard.  This point-to-point voyage runs the length of the OBX, from Corolla to Hatteras, where we raise a toast at the finish at The Wreck Tiki Bar. 100% paved, 100% coastal, 100% unforgettable.
