Franklin, TN

If you are familiar with Mid-State or the Tennessee Mile then you know exactly what you are signing up for but there’s a slight twist. This will be roughly a 2 mile loop that shares the same woods as the Murder Mile but with less sinister climbs and descents. Traversing across and alongside beautiful black slate springs and traveling the ridge lines this will show you the beauty of these magical woods. 

Runners will have 120 hours to complete this challenge. 72 hours for the 100. Runners will be self supported but we will serve breakfast and dinner. There will be water jugs throughout the event. Runners may leave and return to the race. This is great for local runners looking to tackle a challenge and still make it home for dinner or squeeze in hours at the office.

This will be mostly single track and runners will need to use GPS to log their run. We will have a form of tracking the loops but due to the nature of this event runners will need to verify distance covered. This will still have a fairly significant amount of elevation gain. We will confirm the course specifics come colder weather when snakes aren’t an issue but you can assume the elevation gain will be at 200 feet of gain per mile. Of all the routes we’ve taken that’s been the average. So that’s approximately 40,000 feet of gain for the 200 & 20,000 for the 100.

Finishers of the 200 will receive a special jacket and buckles. 100 milers will receive buckles.
