About the race
The Harbin Branch Veterans Run is a USATF sanctioned trail event at Doe Mountain Recreation Area in Mountain City, TN on November 7, 2026. The event uses Doe Mountain's nonmotorized trail system and offers running and walking options on marked trails including Trail 2, the Nature Trail, and Trail 110.
Runners may choose from these distances:
- 6 Miler
- 4 Miler
- Fun Walk
Course details provided by the organizer note approximate elevation gains: about 600 ft for the 6 Miler, about 360 ft for the 4 Miler (the 4 Miler will measure approximately 3.6 miles due to adjacent construction), and about 50 ft for the Fun Walk. Both running events have a 2.5 hour cutoff time. The Fun Walk is untimed.
All 4- and 6-mile participants receive a race logo beanie and a finisher sticker; registering by October 24 guarantees a beanie. The Fun Walk registration does not include a beanie unless one is added at registration for $20. Award categories include top three women and men in each distance plus top woman and man veteran in each distance.
