10th Annual Yeti 100 Mile Endurance Run

Where Mountain Legends Are Born

Deep in the Appalachian mountains, where mist clings to ancient trails and stories echo through the hollows, a different kind of ultra was born. For ten years, the Yeti 100 has been more than just a race - it's where first-timers find their ultra legs, speed demons chase sub-24 dreams, and strangers become trail family somewhere between dusk and dawn.

On September 26, 2025, we're celebrating our 10th trip around the mountain sun on America's most enchanting rails-to-trails course. Whether you're eyeing your first buckle or hunting for that perfect PR, come write your chapter in our wild mountain tale.

Part of the 'From Start to Heart' Series

The Yeti 100 stands as the crown jewel in our inaugural 'From Start to Heart' series - three iconic Appalachian ultras that capture the soul of mountain running. Series runners journey from the spring trails of Troublesome Hollow 50K, through the summer challenge of the Dam Yeti 50 Miler, culminating in this legendary fall hundred. Limited to just 50 dedicated Yetis, one series registration ($450) unlocks all three adventures.
