The Warriors UltraRun is an overnight, underground running experience that carries runners over 28 miles as they recreate the escape route from the iconic 1979 cult film by Walter Hill. After attending a 1 AM Conclave, held at a secret location in the Bronx, runners dressed as gang members pass movie shooting sights as they race for Coney Island.
To bring the movie to life, we created a unique race format, an Urban Chase, where a lead gang -- the Warriors Elite Team -- receives a 10 minute head start before being chased through the streets of NYC by the full field.
This is a costumed UltraRun -- for running clubs, solo runners and groups of friends... everyone dresses as gang members featured in the film, or creates their own running gangs (2023 rumblers included The Young Satans, The Baltimore Whorioles & The Running Hearts).
All runners are placed in similarly-paced running gangs -- and no one runs alone.
The Warriors UltraRun was founded by Todd Aydelotte, an NYC ultrarunner and devoted fan of the film, who ran the route by himself in July, 2018. As word spread, more fans of the Warriors joined him each year.

The 5th Annual The Warriors UltraRun was held in July 2023 and featured ultrarunners from all over the world. Matt Collins passed The Warriors Elite Team at mile 7, reaching the beach at Coney Island in 3:11 (1st) and tying the course record. Ahmed Moussa finished in 3:41 (2nd) and Marvin Enero in 3:38 (3rd). For the women, Lizzie Lee won 1st place (3:58), followed by Tracy Schultz (4:09) and Nora Carroll (4:16).
For 2023, "The Running Hearts" were named Top Gang, while Kristen Dunleavy won the coveted "third vest," awarded to any runner who embodies the spirit of this race.
