Relentless Running Events

09/14/2024

My family and I are proud to be participating and supporting this great first-year event! Can we get some speedsters to show up and throw down some fast times chasing the cash prize? Can we drum up a few hundred others to run with a smile knowing they're impacting some local 2nd graders?

Did I mention there's snacks and prizes?

Sign up and help out.

Black Mountain Monster weekend has come to an end. We are so happy with the turnout of this event. The spirit and culture of the people who swarm to this race every year are what makes it so special. Vibes aside, the competition was fierce! Y'all were very entertaining for us to watch run by as we supported you from the aid station. Many great memories were made this weekend. Thank you runners for the incredible support you have shown.

Special thanks to all of the hard working volunteers. Without this crew of 15 or so people, this race could never happen. They are the best.

Shout outs to Mountain Running Company- Black Mountain, Victoire Coffee Co., and Montreat College for supporting the Monster every year.

Fred at The Valley Echo has written up an article covering the race that can be found here, thanks Fred!

Runners have been knocking down our door to get this back on the calendar. New for this year: zip-up hoodies, beer tokens, and finishers awards for all runners!

This race is unlike any other in this area. It was born into this world as a bar bet. A group of runners that had just finished a training run with and headed over to to rehydrate (hard to believe, right?). After some number of beers, a friendly debate broke out over how fast one could run from the brewery to the top of the mountain from which it gets it's name. A few of us ran the route, which was fun, and a new race was born.

Where did you think baby races came from, a stork?
