Hellbender registration opens November 1st at noon!
The Hellbender One Hundred is one of the most scenic hundred milers on the East Coast. This course will take you through a grueling tour of the massive Black Mountains, deep into the valleys below and to the summit of Mt. Mitchell, the highest mountain East of the Mississippi. With an elevation change of ~48,000+ ft, runners will experience some of the most challenging and beautiful trails in all of Western North Carolina. You'll not want to miss this premiere, graduate level hundred through the heart of Southern Appalachia! We are a Hardrock 100 and Western States 100 qualifying race!
*The Hellbender 100 course has been impacted by Helene and will be an alternative course for 2025.
