Duck Island Summer Mile
The Harriet Lock Memorial Mile, also known as the Duck Island Summer Mile, takes place at Warriors Path State Park in Kingsport, Tennessee. This event is held within the scenic surroundings of 490 Hemlock Road and offers a focused racing experience on a 1 mile point-to-point or circuit format. The event is recognized as a low-key competition, meaning participants should not expect shirts or physical awards upon completion.
The race is sanctioned and follows protocols that allow participants to qualify for Tennessee State records. It is integrated into several regional series, including the State of Franklin Track Club (SFTC) King and Queen (K&Q) series, the Adult Mile series, and the SFTC KFOM. The event structure allows for specific categories to ensure fair competition among different age groups and disciplines.
Available event categories include:
- 1 Mile Competitive Walk
- 1 Mile Girls Mile (ages 14 and under)
- 1 Mile Boys Mile (ages 14 and under)
- 1 Mile Adult Mile (open to both men and women)
The registration process is structured with different pricing tiers based on club membership. Members of the State of Franklin Track Club can participate without a registration fee, while a small fee is required for non-members. The event also serves as an opportunity for club members to earn volunteer points toward specific series requirements. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
