The Survive the Night Relays will take place at the Baptist Health Hamburg complex at 3000 Baptist Health Blvd, Lexington, KY 40509. The main staging area will be in the surface lots adjacent to the cancer center. The following maps include the 2 different run loops for the marathon and ultra runs, as well as the tentative map for the survivor's walk. We are updating this as quickly as we can, and hope to have finalized maps in place ny Wednesday 7/15/2026.
Survivor's Walk (Gold Loop)
We intend to make this year's survivor's walk more unique and fun for everyone. Participants will start witat the Survive the Night Banner and complete a loop around the Baptist Health Hamburg walking paths. We will provide the lights, the music, and some inspiration along the way. We hope you will honor us with your presence and complete as many laps as you would like in honor of you or your friends/family.

Run Course - Marathon Relays (Blue Loop)
The run will consist of 20 laps of a 1.3-mile loop course beginning in front of the cancer center entrance to Baptist Health Hamburg. Runners will run in a clockwise direction around the lot exiting by making a left turn onto Madden Way. They will continue around the round-about to Sisson Way, cross through the next intersection, and then turn right onto Madden Way. They will complete the loop and return to the healthcare complex. We may add a short out and back to ensure 1.3 miles before returning to the main lot and entering the exchange zone in front of the cancer center entrance. Exchanges must occur at the designated exchange zone, therefore, the minimum distance a runner must run is 1.3 miles. The final runner will complete a short loop towards the Nutter Field House at the end of their lap, during which all teams are encouraged to run this segment together, before finishing down the home stretch to the finish line.

Ultra Run Course (Pink loop)
The ultra run will consist of as many loops as competitors can complete in a 12 hour time window, beginning at 7:30 PM on July 18, 2026. The course will follow the marathon loop through the cancer center lot, onto Madden Way thru Sisson Dr and back to Madden Way. Runners will then cross onto good grass footing on either side of the running path, so running off-road is permissible.
The loop will be adjusted and will measure 2.5 miles on race day.
