Photography & Video Guidelines

---

Beginning in 2026, individual runners and teams will be allowed up to two (2) personal photographers or videographers in addition to allowable crew or team drivers.  They will be required to ride in the support vehicle and not drive separately.  (Each team and competitor is allowed ONE vehicle only.)  These additional persons MUST be approved in writing by the Chief Course Marshal NO LATER THAN THREE (3) WEEKS PRIOR TO RACE DAY and must register as "Runner or Team Photographer".  (Find registration link under the "Register" tab.)   Contact Chief Race Marshal:  Marshal@ultrasportsllc.com

Approved photographers and videographers will be considered an extension of the individual runner or team support personnel regarding potential warnings and penalties, and will be held fully accountable for complying with all race rules and those of Monroe County and the FAA**.  They may never cause disruption to the race in general, to any competitor or volunteer in particular, or to Keys traffic.  Violations will accrue to the runner or team as if the runners themselves were responsible.  Choose your support carefully and be certain they understand their responsibilities and related government rules.

**Use of Drones; Licensing

Drone use is subject to limitation along portions of the course.  Compliance with FAA and US military rules regarding drone use near airports and military installations (such as the Naval Air Station) is of utmost importance.  These regulations are subject to change at any time.  Users are expected to be aware of and comply with, each of them.  PROOF OF DRONE LICENSE must be provided to the Chief Course Marshal when applying for approval to participate in the race. 

General Media

Bona fide public media interested in documenting the race must contact the Race Director to request media credentials no later than two weeks prior to race day.  Rules and restrictions will apply.  Contact Race Director:  bob@ultrasportsllc.com
