Ultrarunning's Favorite Question
THE WHY
A central resource for the Florida Ultrarunning community.
The goal of this site it to make it easy for us to find the next race, learn who works behind the scenes, and highlight the great people that make up Florida Ultrarunning
This project is designed to be a clear roadmap for our local scene - from races to FKTs to running adventures. It's a way to highlight the veterans of our sport and welcome new members to our Florida Ultra Family.
Like all ultras, no one can truly do it alone. To make this site really great - I need your help. Through sharing your races, adventures and services, we can truly enhance all aspects of the community.
To those new to the community:
I hope you feel welcomed by your fellow athletes and embraced by those that put their time and hard work into this sport.
To the veterans, RDs and supporters: Thank you for continuing to inspire, motivate and lift up the Florida ultrarunning community.
If you find this site helpful, consider donating.
About Me
My name is BobbieJoe Derhak
I became part of the ultrarunning community in 2020 with my first 50K at Croom Zoom. Since then, I have raced, crewed, paced and volunteered; meeting people who have quickly became family.
You can find me on Pacer Travel YouTube where we discuss the latest news and updates from the ultra world, live stream races and help with travel logistics.
I started coaching in 2024 and enjoy seeing other runners successes even more than my own. Click here for more information.
I spend a lot time creating content for Pacer Travel, as well as creating reels and shorts for runners and races highlighting finish lines and courses, managing the social media of our family owned LEGO resale shop, Brick Heads Florida, and taking care of my 2 wonderful grandchildren.
I am a big fan of the sport and the incredible athletes involved.
If you see me, say Hi!
