The Mountaineer Rumble 10 Mile-50K-100K-100 Miler returns to Kings Mountain State Park in Clover, South Carolina on November 7th, offering a diverse set of distances for trail runners. The event takes place at the heart of the park along the CCC Multi-Use Trail (Orange Blaze), known for its challenging terrain and scenic views. Participants will gather early morning around 6:30 AM to start their day with a pre-race breakfast before heading out on one of four distinct courses, each tailored to different levels of endurance. On race morning, runners can expect firm yet slightly soft trail conditions that are characteristic of the park’s well-maintained paths. The CCC Multi-Use Trail winds through dense forests and over rocky hills, providing a mix of elevation changes and flat stretches. Weather forecasts suggest temperatures ranging from 10 to 25 degrees Celsius with low humidity levels and minimal precipitation risk. UV index will be at a comfortable level for runners not requiring heavy sun protection. The Mountaineer Rumble has been running since 2022, quickly establishing itself as one of the premier ultra-distance races in South Carolina. The event attracts hundreds of participants each year who come to test their limits on rugged terrain while supporting local conservation efforts through race proceeds. In addition to individual accolades and finishers awards, runners completing all three distances over multiple years can earn a custom handmade award celebrating their dedication. The Mountaineer Rumble offers four distinct race options: the 10 Miler covering 16.1 kilometers, the 50K stretching for 32 miles of looped trails with an elevation gain per lap of approximately 650 feet, and the longer distance challenges of the 100K at 62 miles and the grueling 100 Miler at a total of 98.7 miles plus additional climbs. Each race features aid stations stocked with essential supplies and offers finisher awards unique to their category.
