Pumpkin Holler Hunnerd 50K 2026: Cutoffs

The course

Where it goes loop · 10 aid stations · rust marks a stop your crew can reach

Course line from the race's own GPX. Source file. Year of this file not known.

One lap of the 30-mile Pumpkin Holler loop, plus a 1.5-mile out-and-back spur through the Nickel Preserve to Waffle Stop.

The course looks flat from a car. It is not: expect a handful of real climbs on gravel county roads, including a stretch runners call out around mile 25-28. The hills get longer and steeper each time around for runners doing multiple loops.

The race

What this one is

Pumpkin Holler Hunnerd runs every October at Eagle Bluff Resort outside Tahlequah, Oklahoma, along the Illinois River and the edge of the J.T. Nickel Family Nature and Wildlife Preserve. Five distances share the same 30-mile gravel-road loop: the 100 Mile and 100K run it three times and twice, the 50K once, and the 25K and 10 Mile turn around partway out. The course rolls through oak and pine woods, pasture and prairie, and finishes back at Eagle Bluff with campfires, hot food and live music.

The race takes its name from Pumpkin Holler, a small community the course runs through in Cherokee County, an area locals still call "Pumpkin Center," "Pumpkin Hollow" or "Punkin Holler" depending who you ask. The old Pumpkin Center cemetery sits just off the course for anyone running longer than the 25K.
