Sadlers Creek Stumble
Sadlers Creek Stumble is a fall trail running event at Sadlers Creek State Park in Anderson, SC (940 Sadlers Creek Rd). The course is a 6.8-mile loop around a Lake Hartwell peninsula that runs through woods, along lakeshore trails, and past campsites.
Distances offered:
- 10K : one 6.8-mile loop
- 13.1 Miles : two loops
- 26.2 Miles : four loops
- 32 Hour / 100 Miles : fifteen loops
The loop surface is mostly trail (about 80%), with sections of gravel, pavement, and sand. Each lap includes about 380 feet of elevation gain spread across rolling hills on a wide, runnable surface. A fully stocked aid station is located at the start/finish and is accessible once per loop.
On-site camping options include lakefront campsites through the park and primitive tent or car camping in the parking lot adjacent to the course, roughly 150 meters from the main trailhead. There are four sets of restrooms on course at the Activity Center, Campgrounds 1–3, and the Ranger Station. Parking is organized at the park ball field and a $5 special use permit covers park entry.
Finish-line provisions include hot soup, pancakes, music, and a post-race gathering. The event provides chip timing with live results, custom race bibs, finisher medals, race photos, and awards for top finishers and age-group placings. The race supports March of Dimes and is part of the Upstate Giving Series. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
