This 100 mile event is perfect for setting a fast PR and possibly an age group record. Located at Silver Comet trail 4625 Camp Highland Rd in Smyrna. It is perfect practice to see just how many miles you can get in 36 hours. The course is mostly flat with 108 ft of elevation gain each loop which will challenge you after a few miles but isn't that why you run long distance. The best part is MCM( Mike Melton) is timing the event so with a chip time and personal race bib no worries about constantly looking at your watch. You will pass a screenshot of your mileage each loop. The course is a 1 mile track surrounded by an enclosed trail of Atlanta's newly built beltline. There is plenty of space to set up a tent/aid station inside the park for anything you must have and enough room for a crew or family members to cheer you on. I do ask that you be mindful that the park is located in one of Atlanta's most historical neighborhoods so please be respectful of the space we are running in especially after 9 pm. There are plenty of trash cans, lights will be on all night long but HEADLIGHTS are needed for the TRAIL portion. There are plenty of trees for moments of shade and beautiful houses surround the park along with details that the area was established in 1919. There is a strict cap on this event to comply with park rules so register early. If you want to end your year with high mileage, this is the place to do it. All proceeds go to helping Atlanta's homeless population.
