One Epic Run

One Epic Run is a 24 hour running event held at Croft State Park in Spartanburg, SC on December 5–6, 2026. The event uses the park's old 5K loop; runners complete repeated laps for the 24 hour period.

The event is self timed. Runners track laps manually and report results at the end of their run. As a visible lap count, participants place a rock in a personal cup for each completed lap.

Packet pickup takes place on race morning at the check-in table near the start/finish area, and bibs are assigned at check-in. Park admission is required at the gate; the park lists fees for adults, seniors, and children with children age 5 and younger admitted free. Camping is available through the park.

Aid at the event is community based. Participants are asked to bring a dish to share as the official aid station, and to provide their own hydration vessel because the event is cup-less.

Awards are determined by gun time and include top three overall male and female finishers and top three male and female finishers in each age group. The event is planned to proceed in any weather unless conditions make it unsafe. All registrations are final with no refunds. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
