Run4Water is a nonprofit event that raises awareness and supports solutions for the worldwide water crisis through running events. The event is held in Lebanon, TN at 1213 Leeville Pike on a smooth, blacktop, flat loop course designed with minimal elevation change and no sharp turns.
The course is divided into two separate 12-foot lanes. The inner lane is USATF certified (TN17001BW) and measures about 818.34 meters per lap; the outer lane is USATF certified (TN18001BW) and measures about 839.46 meters per lap. Elite runners use the inner lane while other participants use the outer lane; lanes run in opposite directions. Direction changes are planned every six hours. Participants may set up tents or personal aid in designated areas along the course.
The event offers multiple timed formats and shorter distances:
- 24-hour event
- 12-hour event
- 100k and 100-mile events
- 6-hour and 3-hour events
- 5K events
Aid stations will be arranged to reflect participant needs; organizers will consult early registrants about specific provisions. Indoor bathrooms are within 25 meters of the course, with portable toilets nearby. A warming station will be available. The race will use chip timing with split monitoring and live timing updates. Awards include overall male and female winners, entry refunds for very high mileage performances, and a monetary award for new world records in certain events.
