The 1.1 mile loop was carved into existence by our race inspiration, Nate Solomon. His morning walk/runs have taken place on this trail every morning, along with a pit stop at the top to talk with God at sunrise.
During a conversation with his brother and brother in law, they talked about the MidState Mile in Tennessee, hosted by the Jones family. A last man standing race, done on a 1.1 mile loop.
Ironically enough, the loop Nate takes every morning is 1.1 mile long.
Nate decided to turn his morning routine into something more, share it with others, and throw some competition in there too.
The Inkom Last Man Standing 1.1. was born.
The 1.1 mile loop has an elevation gain of 240 ft. every loop. There are rolling hills, challenging climbs and descents. And views that will will take your breath away if the trail doesn't!
Sounds easy, right?
It's. Just. One. Mile.
How the race works:
Runners have 20 minutes to complete each 1.1 mile loop.
The clock restarts every 20 minutes:
8:00, 8:20, 8:40, and on and on and on...
until one man (or woman) is left standing.
If you do not make it back to the corral within the 20 minutes, you are out.
No exceptions.
The clock / loops continue until there is only one runner left... The Last Man Standing.
Young & Old.
Trained & Untrained.
Men & Women.
Everyone that signs up has one common goal,
find their own limits and push a little farther.
When they think the tank is empty,
somehow they find more in the reserve.
Ask anyone that has stepped foot on the
Inkom Last Man Standing 1.1
They will tell you, it changed them.
It will change you too.
As the sun sets, the headlamps come out,
and the laps keep adding up.
Racers go through the night
and look forward to that lap when
the sunrise hits the trail.
The teamwork & dedication from your family and friends,
shows as the hours pass, the racers keep going,
and everyone is tired.
As a team, you just keep going..
It's Just One Mile.

"Inkom Last Man Standing came down to me putting in the work well ahead of race day, staying disciplined to the plan, and pushing through discomfort when things got hard. I focused on one loop at a time, trusted my preparation, and pushed myself further than I ever thought possible. Having my kids Madax and Knoxx, my wife Tarese, and my friend Jennie Davis there every step, handling fuel, recovery, and keeping me locked in—made all the difference, and I couldn’t have won it without them. It stands as one of my most accomplished moments, not just for the win, but for how far I’ve come, from barely being able to run a mile as a teenager to outlasting a competitor like last year’s winner, TJ Solomon!" - Clint Kingston
