The Cannonball Run : Jul 25, 2026, Chattanooga, TN
The Cannonball Run is a Last Man Standing running event held in Chattanooga, Tennessee at 1312 Stringers Ave. Registration opens on Jan 15, 2026. The event uses repeated loops on a set course and continues until only one runner remains.
Race format and course
Participants run repeated laps of a 4.3-mile loop. Each lap must be completed within one hour; failure to complete a lap in the allotted time or failing to start the next lap results in elimination (recorded as DNF). Laps repeat every hour, and runners who finish a lap early have the remaining time before the next lap to rest and refuel (for example, a 30-minute lap finish leaves 30 minutes before the next start). The format emphasizes endurance and pacing across multiple consecutive laps. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
