Midnight Sun Block Party!

Midnight Sun Block Party Presented by Toughest Alive Come join us June 27–28 for the Midnight Sun Block Party — a free community event built around movement, fun, and bringing people together. This is designed to be extremely welcoming and beginner friendly with a community aid station on the 1.2 mile loop course, under the midnight sun. Whether you're chasing 100 miles, 50 miles, trying your first ruck, attempting to do a marathon for the first time with no embarrassment--getting out for a few miles with friends, or simply wanting to see how far you can go, this event is for you. Spend the whole weekend with us or stop by for an hour. Walk, run, ruck, laugh, hang out at the aid station, meet new people, and make some miles. All ages and fitness levels are welcome. You're welcome any time, for any distance. Alongside the community event, there will also be a few big personal challenges happening: Hadassah ("Dossie") will be attempting to set a new benchmark in her pursuit of a 100-mile performance at just 12 years old. Andrew will be attempting to set a high standard for the upcoming Toughest Alive Challenge. But this weekend isn't about elite performances — it's about community. Whether you cover 1 mile or 100 miles, you belong here. Distance & Start Times The Midnight Sun Block Party officially kicks off at midnight Friday night / Saturday morning and continues through the weekend. Come out and challenge yourself with 100 miles, 50 miles, or simply see how far you can go.There are no minimums and no pressure — whether you cover 1 mile or 100 miles, you're part of the event. The only participants who definitely need to start at midnight are those planning to use the full 48-hour window, since the clock for the weekend ends at midnight Sunday night. Everyone else is welcome to start whenever works best for them. Want to jump in at midnight and experience Alaska's midnight sun vibes? Awesome. Prefer to roll in Saturday morning, Sat
