Event Overview
The Lady of the Lake is an annual endurance event held at Vogel State Park in Blairsville, Georgia. Participants run on a loop around Lake Trahlyta, situated at the base of Coosa and Blood mountains. The event offers two timed categories where participants can complete as many laps as they choose within the designated timeframe.
The available distances for the event are:
- 8 hour race
- 4 hour race
Course Details
The course consists of a 1 mile trail loop around the lake. The terrain is described as gently rolling and primarily composed of hard pack pea gravel. Some sections feature single track trails, while a very short portion of the loop is paved.
Participant Information
An aid station is located at the start and finish area, providing a variety of food such as fruit, cookies, chips, and sandwiches, alongside water and soda. This is a cupless race, so participants are required to carry their own water bottles or hydration packs.
Registration includes a jacket and a finisher medal. Awards are presented to the top three male and female participants in both the 4 hour and 8 hour divisions based on the highest number of completed laps. Only full laps are counted toward the final total. Proceeds from the event are used to benefit Vogel State Park.
