Pumpkin Holler Hunnerd, Tahlequah OK
The Pumpkin Holler Hunnerd is a multi distance running event held in the J.T. Nickel Preserve near Tahlequah in Cherokee County, Oklahoma. The 17,000 acre Nickel Preserve is a privately protected area in the Ozark region that runs alongside the Illinois River and contains rolling Cookson Hills, steep slopes, narrow valleys, and many spring fed creeks.
The course uses gravel country roads and tree covered trails and passes grassy prairies, oak and pine woodlands, and tributaries that feed the Illinois River. Autumn foliage is noted on the trails. The event takes place near local places of natural and cultural interest, including the Nichols Wildlife Preserve and areas tied to regional history.
Organizers state that aid stations are staffed mainly by experienced ultra runners who provide food, assistance, and encouragement. The event also features a gravel ride called the Pumpkin Holler Gravel Grinder held during the race weekend; prize guidelines include finishers awards for those who meet published cut offs and top three awards by category.
Tahlequah's Native American history is referenced in the event's buckle and finisher medals. Registration for the event closes on Tue, Oct 13 at 11:59 PM CT.
