Cheraw 24 Hour
The Cheraw 24 Hour is a timed trail running event at Cheraw State Park in Cheraw, SC, organized by Mountaineer Rumble Events. The course uses the Turkey Oak Trail-Outer Loop and runs continuously during the 24 hour event period.
The loop measures 4.3 mile with about 190 feet of elevation gain on a smooth, mostly flat surface described as fast. The route passes through pine, turkey oak, blackjack oak, and hickory stands and offers views where runners may encounter red cockaded woodpeckers, deer, and various other bird species.
Race logistics include a 24 hour time limit and the option to complete as many loops as a runner chooses within that period. An aid station and a drop bag area are positioned at the completion of each loop so runners can access race aid and personal gear without leaving the course. Typical ultra race foods are available at the start/finish aid station, and food served throughout the event includes burgers, pizza, hot dogs, hamburgers, pasta, bacon, and pancakes.
Awards are given to the top three male and top three female finishers. Any runner who completes 100 or more miles receives a custom 100 mile buckle. Cabins and campsites are available through Cheraw State Park. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
