Georgia State Championship Trail Running Race! That´s right it´s back! The official state championship trail running race brought to you by Dirty Spokes Productions! This year we will have a 6.2 mile championship race along with a 3.1 mile trail running event.

We appreciate your feedback from this past year and can´t wait until October 23rd, 2011 to bring it to you again! Don´t let the name "Championship Trail Running Race" scare you… as with all of our races we have runners at all ability levels participate in our events (this event is no different, we just upped the stakes with a little cash incentive)! We are also adding a 3.1 mile trail running race to this event… the 3.1 mile will be on a smooth running surface and hopefully be a great opportunity to introduce newcomers to the sport of trail running!

This will be one of the best trail races you will do in 2011! If you don´t love it I will comp an entry for you to one of our other events!

Here´s your opportunity to find out who´s the best trail runner in the state of Georgia! We will crown the overall male and female winners on October 23rd, 2011 – CASH PAYOUT! We will be giving away $300 1st Place Male, $200 2nd Place Male, $100 3rd Place Male ⁄ $300 1st Place Female, $200 2nd Place Female, $100 3rd Place Female (Cash Payout Championship Race Only). That´s right equal payout for the male and female top 3 overall finishers (as well as hand out medals to the top 3 finishers in each age category – see categories below)! We will also be giving away Sweet Custom Embroidered Running Jackets (Dirty Spokes Trail Running – Custom Embroidered) to our Overall top 3 male ⁄ 3 female finishers (Championship Event Only).

You don´t have to have run any previous races or have to enter any times to us from any previous races to qualify (you don´t have to be a member of any club or group either).

RACE COURSE

This 6.2 mile race course has a little bit of everything! This is one of the best trail running courses we have put together! The 6.2 mile looped course will utilize many of the trails within the park and will challenge some of the best trail runners in the state. The race will start in an open field and quickly narrow down to a double track trail... the first .9 of a mile is back and forth uphill (double track) once you get to the top of the hill you will cross a gravel road and quickly start back down (still double track). Then you hit the single track sections and once you get there you will find this course ⁄ terrain is made up of a little bit of everything! The terrain is rolling hills, steep hills, single track, double track, granite rock outcroppings along with technical sections (tight and twisty along with rocks and roots not too many but enough to make it fun) along with two shallow creek crossings and concludes with an uphill finish.

The 3.1 mile course appeals to the new trail runner wanting to experience moderately technical trails, while it will draw in the experienced trail runners looking for a fast course.
