LIMITED TO 50 RUNNERS!!!
The Pinnacle Tower 50K is a NO fee event hosted by Dancing Donkey Racing and is open to all runners.
Both runs (50K and 25K) will start at 7:30AM and there will be a 10 hour time limit (5:30PM). The sun will be setting at 5:55PM, so I want everyone off the mountain before it gets dark!! Both the 50K and 25K runs will begin and end at the Pinnacle tower trailhead. The number of runners is limited as this run will take place in the Cherokee National Forest. The course will consist of single track, forest service roads, grassy fire roads, and mountain bike trails. There will be lots of climbing but also some sweet downhills!!
The course will be minimally marked with ribbons.
Each runner will be expected to be mostly self-supported, as this is more of a group run, however all runners will receive an official finishing time and results will be posted to UltraSignup. A chip timing system will be used this year to record your finish time. After the run, we plan to have a some sort of after run get together.
PARKING
Parking will now be at the Pinnacle Fire Tower Trailhead parking area. Please park in the gravel lot across from the paved area. If coming from Johnson City on I-26 East, take exit 32 and turn right at the stop sign. You will see the little brown building and the paved parking area. There are bathrooms in the brown building.
