About the Event

Pursue the formidable challenge of congelatio on a rugged Tennessee farm at the Black Toe Run on Saturday, February 7, 2026, a 12-, 24-, and 48-hour winter endurance test where runners battle the elements on a punishing 5-mile loop. With approximately 1,000 feet of climbing per lap at Hardin Farm, this event is a raw, honor-system-based trial where the simple goal is to outlast the cold and complete as many laps as possible, either solo or on a relay team. Embrace the sparse, self-reliant ethos where runners are responsible for their own warmth and survival, competing for legendary awards like the $2,000 prize for the first-ever 100-mile finish and custom beer steins for 50 miles in 12 hours. This is a grassroots, no-frills adventure where questionable life decisions are celebrated and frozen toes are a badge of honor.

New for 2026, a prestigious jacket system rewards long-term dedication to the event, awarded free on a runner's 5th year of attendance. Choose your ultimate test with the notoriously lonely 48-hour option, designed for the most experienced and self-sufficient athletes, or join the communal atmosphere of the barn basecamp with post-race brisket and noodle soup. Secure your spot in this cult-favorite winter classic, where the real competition is against the distance, the cold, and your own limits on a relentlessly beautiful and unforgiving course.
