Gone Loco Watertown, TN   Feb 8, 2026

Come explore the beautiful Eureka Trail in Athens. This trail was created from the rails to trails conversion and is very flat and 100% runnable… Following a former railroad bed, the gravel trail winds southeast through woodlands, rural landscapes, and the community of Mashburn before ending at the outskirts of Englewood. Also as a bonus they are extending the trail right now and will be finished in November for us to utilize in December.

Gone Loco race takes place on the Eureka Trail in Athens, TN. It is currently the only endurance event to utilize this trail system with beautiful views and rolling hills. This is a well-maintained, and very runnable trail system. Gone Loco race is created as a reminder of the train/rail system that uses to run through the city and town and is a huge part of history for the community.

This race was designed for all runners, ages, and outdoor enthusiasts. From the seasoned ultrarunner to the beginner trail runner, this will be a fast course and we expect some runners to break their PRs in this race.
