The Ivy Trek Ultra

Quitman, United States • 27 Sep 2025

The Ivy Trek Ultra is a challenging trail running event held at Clarkco State Park in Quitman, Mississippi. Featuring a 7.78-mile loop course with a mix of double and single track trails, runners enjoy scenic views of Ivy Lake, bridges, and the notable Gold Fish Pond. The race offers three distances: 50K (four loops), 25K (two loops), and 12.5K (one loop).

The terrain is deceptively hilly but the trails are well-maintained and easy to navigate. Participants can camp on-site with options for cabins, camper pads, and primitive camping. Aid stations provide water and sports drinks, and RFID chip timing tracks runners' splits.

The event supports Friends of Clarkco State Park through race proceeds. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
