FCA ENDURANCE RACE

Race Description

ONE MILE ENDURANCE LOOP

2HR, 4HR, 6HR, 12HR, & 24HR

The endurance race takes place on a one-mile paved loop around the beautiful Oakwood campus of the University of North Georgia (see route below). The course runs entirely on the road, with all lanes open to runners, providing plenty of space to spread out.


5K ROUTE

Runners will start alongside the full group before veering onto the dedicated 5K course. From there, the route joins the scenic dirt pipeline and a portion of the cross-country trail behind the track, eventually looping back toward the heart of campus. The race finishes strong in Tent City—perfect for a cheering crowd and a photo-worthy finish.


10K ROUTE

Runners will start alongside the full group before veering onto the dedicated 5K course. You'll briefly stay with the 5k runners before veering right onto the greenway. You will run an out and back on the greenway and then transition onto the scenic dirt pipeline. From there, the route joins a portion of the cross-country trail behind the track, eventually looping back toward the heart of campus. The race finishes strong in Tent City—perfect for a cheering crowd and a photo-worthy finish.


AID STATION SET UP

Our checkpoint area will be in one of the large parking lots, where you'll have room to set up your own tent in designated grass areas. This hub will feature aid stations, medical tents, and all the food and nutrition you can imagine to keep you going strong.


Need a break? You'll have access to the gymnasium between 8am-5pm for bathrooms, showers, and a place to cool off.

Will you go for the 24 hour

HEARN HUNDRED?

After completing 100 miles in 18 hours last year, James Hearn's tradition will continue this year! While Hearn is not going for 100 miles this year, the Hearn Hundred belt buckle will still be something runners can all chase! Do you have what it takes to run 100 miles in 24 hours?

Whatever duration you choose...

We encourage you to come out and do what YOU can! Walk, jog, or push yourself to see how many miles you can rack up.
