The 2024 edition of the Last Paddler Standing held at Nathan Benderson Park in Sarasota, Florida is kicking off on Saturday, 30 November!
This endurance challenge was the most-watched SUP race of the 2023. Unlike any other paddling race in the world, Last Paddler Standing is a SUP racing competition of stamina and strategy. Racers will paddle a 3.33 mile loop course, starting and finishing the loop within a one-hour period. The next loop will begin on the hour and the race goes until only one paddler is left standing. At the 48 hour mark, the length of the loop is being be increased to 4.9 miles.
