About
Lake Yahou was just opened up in May 2022 for recreational use. We are lucky enough to be the first trail race starting at the lake. If you ran our McClellan Madness race, then you are familiar with the other side of the mountain where we will have an aid station.The trails are comprised of (for the most part) non-technical, single-track dirt. Obviously, it’s nature, so there are rocks and roots. The trail is very runnable for new and seasoned trail runners with just a few spots that have rocks/boulders.Race location: 370 Lake Yahou Rd, Annsiton, AL 36205

Perks, Awards, Finish

You will not be considered for a top award if you drop to a lower distance mid race. Finish line will have music, food and beverages. Come hang out and enjoy the party afterwards. You deserve it.Long sleeve shirts will be give to each registered runner who wants a shirt if you register before Sept 9th. If you register after September 9, there is a good chance you will not get a shirt. **If you do not choose a shirt size, you will not get a shirt.

Beat the Best
If you come in overall (female and male) and beat the best time from previous years in the distance you sign up for, then you will get a free entry to come back the next year.
Refunds, Deferrals and Transfers
I understand that injuries happen, things come up unexpected. I have lost a ton of money on races that I have signed up for that I couldn't run myself. From the moment runners start to register, the money is spent on permits, insurance, swag, shirts, and everything that goes into putting on a great race. Because of this, there are NO refunds. NO deferrals. If you want to transfer your registration to another runner, please contact me..
