Rabun Half Marathon
The Rabun Half Marathon is a trail running event located in Sky Valley, Georgia. Organized by Run the Cohuttas, this race is characterized by a grassroots approach to trail racing. The event emphasizes the experience of the run and official timing rather than traditional race amenities.
Participants in the 1/2 Marathon distance should note that the event does not provide T-shirts, swag, or awards. The focus remains on the run itself and the recorded clock time for each finisher. The course involves local geographic features such as the Bartram Trail, Ammon Falls, and Rabun Bald.
The event is held in a remote setting. Registration is available in advance, though day-of registration is permitted for those who can locate the start area. Day-of registration requires payment in exact cash. The organizers maintain a strict policy regarding registration changes, as no transfers, refunds, or deferments are permitted under any circumstances.
The race utilizes volunteers for various operational roles, including parking management, aid station staffing, course marshaling, and safety sweeping. The terrain is part of the regional trail system near the Georgia border. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
