Gone Loco
Gone Loco is a live trail endurance event in Athens, TN on February 14, 2027, organized by East Coast Adventures. Distances offered include:
- 50K
- 11 Miler
- 11 Mile Ruck
The race takes place on the Eureka Trail, a rails to trails conversion with fine mesh gravel that follows a former railroad bed. The route passes through woodlands, rural landscapes, and the community of Mashburn before ending near Englewood. The course holds a marathon certification (TN25001MS). The live field is limited to 200 participants.
Two fully stocked aid stations support runners, one at the start and one at the turnaround in Englewood. A livestream on YouTube will provide real time race coverage and on course tracking. Pacers are permitted on the 50K after completion of the first lap and may use aid station provisions. An 11 mile open ruck division continues; required dry weights are specified by gender and age and a mandatory weigh in is required 30 to 60 minutes before the start of the ruck. Every official finisher earns a patch.
Prizes are awarded to the top three overall male and female finishers and additional awards are given to the top male and female finisher in the live event. Registration has a swag cutoff and refunds are not available. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
