Beast of the East 100

Race Information

The run takes place on the entire trail system of Crowders Mountain. Both mountain peaks will be summit-ted. You get a nice, beautiful view of the lake, too. This race is more than a race, it is a celebration of one of the most iconic trail systems in the Charlotte area. The 100-miler has a 32-hour time limit and the 50-miler has an 18-hour cut-off. For the 25-miler, it's a 10-hour cut-off. The buckle and medals will also be extremely special for anyone who is able to finish.
