Black Toe Run
The Black Toe Run is an endurance trail event at Hardin Farm in Watertown, Tennessee. The event offers 12 hour, 24 hour, and 48 hour options on a rugged trail loop that is about 5 miles per lap with roughly 1,000 feet of elevation gain each lap. Participants aim to complete as many laps as possible within their allotted time.
Relay teams may have 2 or 4 runners, with only one team member on course at a time. Solo entries are also accepted. Lap tracking is done by marking return times on a central board and is based on the honor system. Teams must have each member complete at least one lap every 12 hours unless injured. Crew members may support runners from a designated area at The Big Barn but are not permitted on the course.
A rucking division is offered; required weights depend on body weight and must be verified before the event. Special awards include a custom beer stein for runners who reach 50 miles in 12 hours, and a prize for the first person to reach 100 miles in 24 hours. Littering can lead to disqualification. Organizers reserve the right to cancel or adjust results for safety in case of extreme weather, and race officials may remove participants judged unfit to continue.
