The Tennessee Mile is a multi-division timed loop race held on private land near Franklin, Tennessee. The course is a 1.1 mile loop with about 340 feet of elevation gain, featuring two substantial climbs, runnable sections, and a downhill through a field. The surface is an old logging road with a wide double-track trail.

Runners are responsible for tracking their own loops; there is no per-loop time limit. Crews and aid are permitted anywhere on course. Participants must provide their own race setup and personal nutrition; water and electrolytes will be available from the organizer. Large permanent tents are not provided; crews may use pop-up canopy-style tents in the designated crew area. Camping is allowed in a large field, with rules restricting camping tents in the start/finish area.
Training plans and camping gear rentals are offered by the organizer. The event is hosted by BMFJ Events on private property and operates under a no-refund, no-deferral policy. Proceeds, if any, may be used to support maintenance of the property. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
