Last Dot Standing

Last Dot Standing and 24/48 Hour by Ten Junk Miles - Belleville WI, September 18–20, 2026

This event features multiple timed races held on the same out-and-back trail between Belleville Community Park and Dot's Tavern. The Last Dot Standing format uses alternating 4.2 mile legs: participants have one hour to run from Belleville to Dot's Tavern, then one hour to run back, with the race restarting every hour on the hour from each location. The sequence continues until only one participant remains.

Additional timed events use the same course. Options include two 24 hour races, a 48 hour race, and two 8 hour events (day and night). In the multi hour races, runners may accumulate distance toward recognized buckle thresholds.

Buckles are awarded to runners who complete these distances:

  • 50 miles
  • 100 miles
  • 150 miles
  • 200 miles

Prize structure for the Last Dot Standing event includes a base prize equal to the greater of $500 or 50% of the pot for the overall last person standing. The last woman standing and the last man standing each have a base prize equal to the greater of $250 or 25% of the pot. The pot is defined as 25% of all registration fees and has no cap. Special prizes will be given to the top three finishers in the 24 hour and 48 hour races.

A discount is offered for active military, veterans, and first responders; details are provided by the organizer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
