The Jackal Trail Marathon
The Jackal Trail Marathon takes place on June 13, 2026 in Jackson, Tennessee, at the Pleasant Plains area. This edition marks the 14th year of the Jackal Trail Marathon event and is presented as the first race in a series of five marathons held on consecutive days.
The course is a trail loop measuring 3.75 miles. The marathon field completes that loop seven times to cover the full event distance. The trail is covered with foliage and runs through wooded terrain; conditions on the course can become very warm as the day progresses.
The event is part of a multi-day sequence of Jackal marathons held from June 13 through June 17, 2026. The June 13 race is followed by four additional Jackal marathon events on the subsequent days. Registration for the June 13 race closes on June 12 at 11:59 PM Central Time.
Information provided for the event highlights the repetitive loop format and the wooded nature of the trail. The description emphasizes the event format and its placement within the five-day series rather than individual results or participant lists.
