Freight Train 100K
Freight Train 100K is a 100 kilometre ultramarathon held in Rice, United States, in December. A 50 kilometre race and a half marathon share the same trail.
All three distances begin at the train depot in downtown Farmville and use High Bridge Trail State Park. The 100K heads east towards Rice and Orchard Road to an unstaffed turnaround at the eastern end of the trail, then comes back to the halfway point before turning west through Tuggle and Prospect to the Pamplin turnaround. From there runners retrace their steps to the depot.
The 50K goes east to Rice and back, then west beyond Tuggle to a turnaround at Oliver Road and finishes downtown. The half marathon crosses the bridge heading east and turns round shortly after Camp Paradise.
