Where: 5050 Pocket Road, Whitwell, TN, 37397

What: 6 or 12 hour timed trail run.

Course Details: The course is a clockwise 6 mile loop of mixed single and double track, grass fields, forest trails, and mining/logging roads. Each loop will have 1000ft of gain and is largely runnable with some moderately technical sections. This event will be scheduled for mostly after dark and over night runs.


Accommodations

Camp Chet has limited cabin and tent spots available during the event. These will be in high demand by runners and their families who stay on-site before, during, and after the event.
(Contact Ruth for more information)

We are partnering with Fireside RV Rentals to make onsite rental campers available on race weekend at a reduced event rate.
Arrive Friday evening and preview the track. Get a great night of sleep and wake at the starting line next morning. No travel or setup on race day. Revisit your warm dry camper during your race to change, eat, and recharge. Celebrate your finish with a shower and hanging out around the fire with everyone else staying onsite. Your only travel after your race is to a comfy bed in a warm camper. Head home Sunday at your leisure, refreshed and proud of your accomplishment. There is a limited supply and they will be in high demand by runners and their families who stay on-site before, during, and after the event.
(Note: There will be a strict cancellation policy so be sure you want the reservation before booking, which will remove it from the availability calendar for others)

Any event of this magnitude could not be possible without generous sponsors. We are currently soliciting sponsors that have a common passion for sharing the joy of outdoor experiences and being active. We also believe we live in one of the most beautiful areas of the country and love showing it off. Our sponsors share these passions and we encourage your patronage.
