OUTLAST NASHVILLE
OUTLAST is a 6 hour trail endurance challenge held in Hermitage, TN. Runners complete a 5K loop every hour on the hour and must finish each lap within that hour to continue. Completing all six laps results in a full finish and a combined time for ranking.
The course uses trail terrain that can include dirt, rocks, roots, elevation changes, and occasional pavement or gravel. There is time between laps for recovery and refueling, but each 5K is individually timed and the next lap begins at the top of the next hour. Missing a lap removes a participant from further rounds.
Support at the loop start or basecamp includes water, basic hydration, and snacks. This is a cupless event so participants must use their own bottle or hydration system. Runners may set up a personal tent or aid station at the site.
Recognition and awards are tiered by laps completed. Participants who complete four laps earn a patch, five laps earn a different patch, and completing all six earns a premium OUTLAST medal plus a premium event tee. Local male and female winners are determined by the fastest combined 5K times. Finishers are placed on a national leaderboard and top performers are eligible for national prize awards and championship invitations.
Registration opens April 22, 2026 and closes September 15, 2026. The registration fee is $90. The event address is 2910 Hobson Pike, Hermitage, TN 37076. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
