Appalachian 200 / 100
The Appalachian 200 / 100 is a trail ultramarathon on March 10, 2027 in Franklin, NC, organized by Run Bum. The event comprises two distances:
- 200 mile
- 100 mile
The 200 mile race is point to point with a 110 hour cutoff, approximately 40,000 feet of ascent and the same descent, and about 10 to 14 aid stations. The 100 mile is the first 100 miles of the 200, with a 39 hour cutoff, roughly 20,000 feet of ascent and the same descent, and about seven aid stations. Both events require mandatory gear including a water filter, and finishers receive a buckle.
The course traverses trails that cross three states, moving from Upstate South Carolina into North Carolina into Georgia and finishing back in North Carolina, and uses multiple named trails including the Foothills Trail, Palmetto, and the Bartram. Route details will be published prior to the race and are subject to change.
Year one participant numbers are limited to 150 runners total. Registration has a closing date and registration fees cover only race entry and the finisher buckle if earned; other items are available for purchase. Run Bum Races publishes a Refund and Deferral Policy effective 2026-08-25 that limits refunds and deferrals except for specified circumstances, requires purchase of third-party refund protection at checkout if desired, and offers volunteer-based deferral options.
