  Welcome to sixth Gateway to the Smokies/Mighty Four Miler event. Last year, we made a lot of changes to the event: a new venue, new distance and a new course and it all went spectacularly. We are going to keep those changes in place and continue to work to make this event even better. We hope you will join us.
