Course and race logistics

The start/finish and race hub are at Raven Lodge by Lake Raven. The course uses loops through Huntsville State Park with many exposed tree roots, pine needle-covered trails, bridges, and lake shoreline sections. Loop structure:

  • 50 mile = 3 x 16.7 mile loops
  • 50K = one 14.6 mile first lap then one 16.7 mile lap
  • 13.1 mile = one 13.1 mile modified lap

A full set of aid stations is provided; one Bridge Aid Station mainly supports the half marathon and is not a reliable service point for 50K and 50 mile runners. The race is cupless; runners should bring their own cup or bottle. Course markings include caution tape, yellow arrows, and reflector markers for low-light conditions. Pacers are allowed under event rules and must register. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
