The race is a scenic loop around the Lake Blackshear. The 5k and the 1-mile course begin at the edge of Lake Blackshear, inside the Lake Blackshear Resort and Golf Club. The 1-mile course loops around the campground and the Resort and through the area in front of the Marina for the finish. The 5K (3.1 miles) runs through the Georgia Veterans Memorial State Park and along the lake. It is one of the most scenic courses in South Georgia, offering breathtaking views of the lake, a few sections of off-road running and gentle rolling hills. Click Here for a map of the course.
