Gone Loco : Eureka Trail Marathon

Gone Loco is scheduled for February 13, 2027 and is laid out on the Eureka Trail in Athens. The event is listed as a certified marathon course.

The Eureka Trail was created through a rails-to-trails conversion and follows a former railroad bed. The route is a gravel trail that winds southeast through woodlands, rural landscapes, and the community of Mashburn before ending at the outskirts of Englewood. The course is described as very flat and 100% runnable.

Surface and setting are concrete details of the route: gravel underfoot, a former rail corridor alignment, and largely rural and wooded surroundings. The certified marathon designation indicates the distance has an official measurement for marathon competition. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
