The Experience

The 33 Ultra in Odell, Nebraska, offers a unique, non-competitive experience focused on spiritual strength along a 33-mile course. This untimed event, first run in 2002 and now in its 20th year, is an offering inspired by Jesus's 33 years on Earth.

The course winds through rural southeast Nebraska, primarily on country and gravel roads, with a small paved section. Runners, walkers, and even bikers can choose from various distances, including a 1-mile, 3.3-mile, 10K, half marathon, and the full 33-mile Ultra. The event emphasizes fellowship, with a free-will donation meal, worship, and testimonies at the Odell Community Building following the race.

Participants are encouraged to register by April 1st to guarantee a long-sleeve Dri-Fit t-shirt. The event culminates with a community gathering, celebrating the physical and spiritual journey of all involved.
