Freight Train 100k

The Freight Train 100k/50k is a winter ultramarathon held in Farmville, Virginia, featuring race options of 100 kilometers, 50 kilometers, a half marathon, and a half marathon hike. The course follows a relatively flat rail trail with less than 1,500 feet of elevation gain for the 100k, making it a fast and accessible route. Runners start and finish at the Farmville Train Station and cross the iconic High Bridge twice.

The event offers aid stations, drop bags, and pacing options, with awards for all finishers and special recognition for top and grand master runners. It is part of the High Bridge Challenge, encouraging participation in both summer and winter races on the trail. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
