The idea

The race runs through the festival.

A running festival on a one-mile loop through West Palm Beach's Warehouse District. Sunrise to sunset. Choose your distance and run it in laps.

Every lap brings you back through the middle of everything. Music. Coffee. Food. Recovery. Science. Talks. The people who came to cheer for you. Unlike a road race, you never disappear onto a course for hours. You are always in it.

A first-time 5K runner shares the loop with someone running 50K. Same course. Same day. Same finish line. Different journeys. Same orbit.

26.2

Orbits, not laps

One orbit is one mile. A half marathon is 13.1 orbits. A marathon is 26.2. Your distance is your orbit count.

1 MI

One loop

The whole festival is one mile around. Every lap of every distance runs through the middle of it, and everyone finishes at the same line.

Sunset

Final Orbit

When the light goes, everyone runs one last mile together. Runners, families, friends, volunteers. The last thing that happens at ORBIT.

Our story

It started with a loop.

It started one Saturday at 5 AM, with two friends running a one-mile loop through Grandview in West Palm Beach, lap after lap, for an hour and fifty minutes. Somewhere between laps, an idea took shape: a festival built around one loop, and one simple question. Have I got one more orbit?

Humanity at the center. Everything else in orbit around it.

Some things we are keeping in the dark for now.

Each one gets revealed to subscribers first. Then to everyone else.

  1. The mileWe know every corner of it. You will see the map when registration opens.
    With registration
  2. The Science of MotionA running festival with a stage and a lab in the middle of it. Keynotes and talks between laps on movement, physics, energy, biology and space, from the wellness and science communities. Coaches. Physicians. Physicists. Astronauts. Next to the stage, an exhibit about what running does to a body: speed, force, heat, heart rate. Run, listen, run again.

  3. Orbit VillageThe middle of the loop is the middle of the day. Recovery and mobility between laps. Coffee. Food. Music. Every lap runs through it.

  4. The CupYour gym. Your run club. Your company. A competition that lasts all day and a trophy someone in this city holds for a year.

  5. Something small, fast and brightFor the runners who are not tall enough for the big loop yet. It has a name. We like it a lot.
