Big Buffalo 50 - Memphis, TN's first ever Ultra-Marathon!
Calling all runners, joggers, week-end warriors and all-around ultra-adventure athletes!!
The Michelle and Chris Clothier family foundation are sponsoring the first-ever Ultra-Marathon in Memphis, Tn...The Big Buffalo 50.
There will be a 50 mile ultra-marathon race, a 50 kilometer ultra- marathon (31 miles) race and a 50 kilometer relay race.
The course is laid out at Shelby Farms and consists of a 6 mile loop covering some hard surface and trail. There will be food, music, goodie bags for the runners, 2-aid stations along the route along with an aid station at the start/finish line of the loop.
The run itself benefits Kids Kickin' Cancer Soccer Club, which is a non-profit supporting kids battling childhood cancers.
A huge bonus making this race unique and unlike any other that we know of...
For the first 250 runners that finishes the race, whether running one of the ultra-distances or the relay, The Clothier family is donating $100 to the Boston Children's Hospital. That is a total of $25,000 donated...
You do the work and the donation is made in your honor!
We are super excited and want to get the word out to runners around the country. This is a great opportunity to earn your first ultra-marathon belt buckle or even a great prep race for the rest of your season.
Whether you want to run or just want to volunteer, this is going to be a great weekend event. While our Turnkey real estate company, Memphis Invest, is only sponsoring the event, I am sure a bunch of our team is going to be participating and volunteering! For real estate buffs that enjoy a nice ong run as well or even want to compete in a relatively flat and fast course, this is a chance to knock out both in one weekend!
When: March 17th
Where: Shelby Farms Park Visitors Center, Memphis, TN
What: 50 Mile Ultra-marathon Race - 6:00 AM Start Time
50 Kilometer Ultra-Marathon Race - 8:00 AM Start Time
50 Kilometer Relay Race - 8:00 AM Start Time

The awards start at 6:00 PM right as the race course closes. There will be an athletes village complete with running gear store, food trucks, Mem-Pops, plus goodie bags and great music. Join us for a fun weekend in Memphis and the first ever Memphis Ultra-Marathon.
