HOW WE GET THERE

PHASE 1

Connect

We travel to meet run club leaders to see who they are, why they run, and what they're building.

PHASE 2

Host

Joining runs and hosting events with clubs. Seeking out brands and nonprofits. Running for a cause!

PHASE 3

Race

A team-scored 50K in the mountains of Western North Carolina.

50K — Western North Carolina — 2027.

We have a vision to hold our flagship event next year in Western NC. With your help we can begin test-running trails and building/planning a memorable experience.

This team-based race emphasizes fellowship and striving for something bigger than ourselves. We are looking for people who train together and want to be a part of building something.

About Us

TPP is currently an early-stage project, hoping to expand as we create value in the endurance community. We hope to offer opportunities for dedicated individuals to learn skills in the areas of Community Building, Event Coordination, Storytelling/Content, Partnership Development, and Leadership.
