The Oli Kai event at Reflection Riding Arboretum and Nature Center in Chattanooga offers timed trail running options on a looped course within the 317-acre property. Distances available include:
- 9 hours

The course is a 2.1-mile loop with about 190 feet of elevation gain per loop. An aid station will be available on course, and participants may set up a personal station in the start/finish area. Runners may complete loops, skip loops, walk, or run according to their chosen time format. A 9-hour relay is new in 2025 and allows team participation.
Early packet pickup is scheduled for Friday at Mean Jeens, with race day pickup at the start/finish area. Registration is online only and closes on Tue, Sep 1 at 11:59 PM ET. There are no refunds and race numbers may not be transferred to another race or person. Camping on Friday and/or Saturday night is available for an added fee of $30 plus tax; those proceeds go to Reflection Riding. A portion of overall race proceeds will also support Reflection Riding. Chattanooga Track Club will provide timing for the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
