The 3rd Annual Latino Ultra Nature Adventure (LUNA) is a culturally relevant and equity driven new kind of Ultra powering the physical and mental health that comes from the mix of athletics, awe inspiring nature, and forest bathing. LUNA promotes human-nature connections and self realization through running and hiking for communities historically excluded from exclusive outdoor sports.
Ultras have traditionally been curated for athletes and have been anchored in competition and driven by an exclusive sports culture. LUNA reframes the Ultra athletics experience to inspire participants to engage in the sport for the first time AND to invite established athletes to join a more inclusive and culture driven ultra challenge.
LUNA is owned and operated by Americas for Conservation + the Arts (AFC+A), a 501(c)(3) organization who has contracted Human Potential LLC as the producer/director of this event. All Human Potential Race Policies Apply. LUNA is a nonprofit event intent on bridging inclusion gaps in the outdoor recreation and sports workspace.
