The Details!
Come run with us this December at the inaugural High Valley Mile @ Kennedy Creek Resort! Located at the highest airfield in the state of Georgia, you'll bask in the beauty of the surrounding Appalachian Mountains, including the famous Big Cedar Mountain (Preachers Rock) and Black Mountain. This is a NO-DNF event, so finishing times/awards will be given to all finishers of 5k and beyond! Come and see how far you can go! The course will consist of a 1-Mile loop around the perimeter of the property on a mostly gravel path, with the tiniest bit of concrete. All runners will pass the central aid-station each lap, where food/drink/shelter/warmth will be available. We will have a designated tent/canopy area for all runners that choose to utilize it.
The Race!
With 6hr/12hr/24hr/48hr options available, it is a perfect time to chase big goals! The course consists of a mostly gravel 1-Mile loop, that is almost entirely flat. We will have runners switch direction every 6 hours.
