Lace up for an unparalleled urban ultra experience at the Nashville UltraSignup Classic, set to challenge runners on September 10, 2026, in the vibrant heart of Nashville, TN. Offering both a grueling 24-hour endurance test and a formidable 6-hour challenge, this event invites ultrarunners to push their limits against the backdrop of Music City.

The course is primarily composed of paved trails and bike paths, winding through Nashville's extensive downtown Greenways system, including sections of the Shelby Bottoms Greenway, Stones River Greenway, and MetroCenter Levee Greenway. Runners will enjoy diverse scenery, traversing pedestrian bridges over the Cumberland River, passing landmarks like Nissan Stadium, Shelby Park, and various golf courses, with glimpses of the city's dynamic urban landscape. While largely flat, the continuous nature of the paved surface on an ultra-distance can be its own challenge. Volunteers will be stationed at road crossings to ensure runner safety.

Participants can anticipate well-stocked aid stations providing essential hydration, electrolytes, and typical ultra-running nutrition to fuel their efforts through the extended hours. Typical race day conditions in early September for Nashville include highs around 87F and lows around 65F, with a 13% chance of precipitation, making hydration and heat management crucial for success. Whether you're aiming for a new personal best or tackling your first timed ultra, the Nashville UltraSignup Classic promises a unique and demanding journey through one of America's most iconic cities.
