“‘It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out of your door,” he used to say. ‘You step into the Road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there is no telling where you might be swept off to.’”
Frodo Baggins
Spend the weekend of September 22nd with Rough Runners for the next 48 hours, running, walking, picnicking, glaring into the eyes of the billowing purple dragon…at night, stare up at the unpolluted, night sky, – counting and wishing away at shooting stars.
The event starts on Friday at 4pm and end Sunday at 4 pm. You may start at your convenience at any time during the event.
Bring your family and friends too! And, be ready to make many more friends during this magical weekend!
This laidback runcation is at a beautiful pine forest farm owned and, graciously loaned out to all of us for 48 hours by Stevi Harvey and her family.
Stevi is a long time ultra runner and nature lover who has wanted nothing more than to share her beautiful pine forest farm with her ultra running family for a weekend of running and funning. Please provide a trail nickname for your bib!
Run as much as you want. Every runner that runs at least 1 loop will get a finisher award. Anyone that runs 100 or more miles during the weekend will get a finisher award and a beautiful belt buckle.
The course is flat, wide, hardpacked grass that is very kind to the feet. Roots are minimal. With elevation changes. There is about 140 feet of elevation gain per loop.
In keeping with all of the Rough Runners races, we have chosen a charity to make a generous donation to from the proceeds of this event. For Stevi’s Roost, the charity of choice is the Ogeechee RiverKeeper. This organization is wonderful, having the same values we have for nature, our waterways and wildlife
Quick overview…
