The Buckeye 200 is a challenging road race spanning approximately 203 miles from Walnut Beach by Lake Erie to Wellsville, Ohio, near the West Virginia border. Participants will enjoy diverse landscapes, including mountain foothills, historic towns, and scenic lakefront streets. The course features long, flat stretches interspersed with around 70 miles of rolling hills, with a total elevation gain of nearly 8,000 feet. Runners have a six-day limit to complete the journey, averaging about 34 miles daily. It's essential to plan for limited resources, as there are no official aid stations, making self-sufficiency crucial. While crews are encouraged, experienced ultra runners can navigate the course solo. With plenty of local amenities available during daytime hours, finishers can look forward to unique rewards for their efforts.
