Cedar Crest Trail Run

7900 Cedar Crest Camp Road

Lyles, TN half marathon, 10k, 5k

Registration closes: Fri, Feb 14 @ 11:59PM CT

Cedar Crest Trail Run

New for 2025, we will change the distances to a half marathon, 10 kilometers, and a 5-kilometer! We have built a new trail that will allow for this change, while still utilizing the same trails we have used in the past. The half marathon and 10k courses are relatively non-technical, similar to many of the trail systems in middle Tennessee. The half marathon and 10k are great events for some higher intensity for those looking for an event leading up to something longer later in the year, however this is also a great event for those completely new to the sport! The 5k course is on a gravel road that is pretty hilly. All the courses will be well marked and have ample aid stations.

Start Times

8:30 A.M. for both 10k and half marathon
9:00 A.M. for 5K
Location
Put in Cedar Crest Camp office into Google Maps, then once you arrive at the camp office, take a hard right. The Start/Finish is at the building at the Top of the hill once you drive out into the field(about .5 miles.)
