About Blackbeard's Revenge 100

Why call it “Revenge”? Pull up a chair, Matey, because the Outer Banks has a story to tell. This temperamental stretch of coast may bring temperatures ranging from 80 to 20 degrees, calm winds followed by blustery conditions, and roads that are flat yet lonely and seemingly endless. Running the Outer Banks promises plenty of fun, but it WILL test you.

Are you pirate enough for the challenge? The event welcomes 100 Mile and 100K buccaneers. Athletes who are not ready for those distances can bring their shipmates and participate as a relay team.

This point-to-point race carries athletes along the full length of the Outer Banks, NC, traveling from Corolla to Hatteras. The course follows 100% paved road and combines scenic views, long-distance challenges, and memorable moments throughout the route.

Volunteer Information

Although Blackbeard’s Revenge 100 covers 100 miles of OBX road, the event depends on the people who call the area home. Local neighbors from Kill Devil Hills to Hatteras—including Lois, a returning volunteer nurse, and her husband Jim—help make race weekend memorable for runners along the course.

Local volunteers are needed for aid stations, the finish line, and other roles on March 20–21, 2027. Running is not required; volunteers simply need a willingness to help and encourage runners from across the country as they pursue a major personal challenge. New volunteers and returning members of the annual crew are welcome.

The source page includes volunteer perspectives from Lois and Jim. The volunteer accounts focus on the way the race brings people together, the support provided to runners, and the lasting community tradition surrounding Blackbeard’s Revenge 100.
