Slow and Tired's Bad Idea - July 11, 2026

Slow and Tired's Bad Idea is a looped trail event held in Enoree, SC at 210 Service Dr and presented by G.O.A.T. Trail Running. The course is a simple 5K trail loop that is repeated multiple times throughout the day.

The format offers ten opportunities to run the same loop, with a new lap beginning every 50 minutes. Participants may run a single lap or return to the start line as many times as they wish; skipping a lap and rejoining later is allowed. There are no eliminations and no competitive pressure built into the event format.

The event emphasizes repeated decision points rather than a single finish line. Success is described in terms of personal choices to start another lap, to continue when tired, or to stop and regroup before returning. The atmosphere is intended to be social and informal, with an emphasis on individual pacing and repeated effort rather than race ranking.

Logistics include registration and an event page hosted by the organizer. The presentation frames the day as a series of short trail laps that test persistence and decision making rather than pure speed. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
