Description:

Relentless Running Events brings to you a festival like endurance event that has runners competing on June 1-2, 2024 for 6, 12 and 24 hours through the wooded trails of Montreat College’s White Oak Estate nestled in Black Mountain, NC. Enjoy free tent camping during the event and live music Saturday afternoon! Awards for top finishers in each event as well as belt buckles for 100 mile finishers will be presented. Everyone will receive an iconic Black Mountain Monster t-shirt, and other goodies with their registration.

Packet pickup will be held at Mountain RunningCompany on Friday afternoon and on-site from 7-9:30am on race morning.

This is a CERTIFIED 5k (3.1 mile) course that is a combination of wide grassy trails, narrow and wide wooded single track, asphalt (.5 miles), 2 fields, 3 wooden bridge crossings and an occasional dirt road. It is very dynamic and fun course. The path is firm, flat ground in most sections with roots covering much of the wooded single track. Most of the course is flat with soft rolling hills. There are two distinct uphill climbs (dirt road and wide wooded trail) and one distinct downhill (pavement). It is identical to last year’s course.

Due to the devastation from Hurricane Helene, there may be a redesigned course for 2025!  Course work and route finalization are currently underway!
