The Country Mile 48 Hour - Run/Walk
The Country Mile 48 Hour is a timed, self paced loop event held April 2–4, 2027 at Beechwood Farms, 204 Bates Bridge Rd, Slater Marietta, SC 29661. The event uses a single 4.167 mile loop on a working farm; the surface is about 95% wide dirt paths with some grass and light gravel and each lap contains roughly 25 feet of elevation gain. Clear directional arrows mark every turn.
Participants may run or walk as many laps as they choose during the 48 hour window. Typical round numbers for laps and distances include:
- 6 laps - 25 miles
- 8 laps - 50K
- 12 laps - 50 miles
- 15 laps - 100K
- 18 laps - 75 miles
- 24 laps - 100 miles
- 30 laps - 125 miles
One aid station is located at the U-Pick Stand and is reached once per lap. Aid station support is limited overnight while volunteers rest, but timing continues continuously. The event is cup-less; participants should bring their own hydration vessel. Camping is available on site for tents and cars with free parking; a limited number of RV spots are available for a fee. Food is provided by local volunteers across the weekend and a beer truck is on site. Every finisher receives a medal and 100 mile finishers receive a buckle.
