GO THE DISTANCE!
The Lynchburg Ultra Series is a classic four-race series comprised of some of the most well-loved ultra/trail races in the Central Virginia region. The four races are Holiday Lake 50k+, Terrapin Mountain 50k+, Promise Land 50k+, and Mountain Masochist 50-miler.
Runners who complete all four races (within time limits) will receive a special award from Rabbit apparel. This year's LUS award is the Rabbit "Warm Up N' Go" jacket for men and women. This jacket retails for $160!

2024 BRTS
NEW FOR 2024
Following in the footsteps of the Lynchburg Ultra Series, Blue Ridge Trail Series (BRTS) consists of the same four events but with a new twist. BRTS is designed as the perfect training ramp-up for anyone looking to tackle their first mountain 50k. With the Blue Ridge Mountains serving as a backdrop for all four courses, the series starts with Holiday Lake 25k in February, Terrapin Half-Marathon in March, Promise Lake 50k in April, and ends with MMTR 50k in November.
BRTS and LUS races have deep roots in the local running community in Central VA. Dating back to the first running of MMTR in 1983, thousands of runners come to love and respect the trails connecting each course.
Registration for BRTS does NOT include entry into each race of the series. Runners must sign up for each event separately. Finishers of all four events will earn a Rabbit "EZ Pullover" sweater at the finish of MMTR 50k.
Event's current local time: 9:59 PM ET
