Eddy Trail Races
The event is based at Chi Rho Center on the south side of Lake Sylvia on the outskirts of Annandale, MN. Races run through Stanley Eddy Park Reserve and use nearby trails and connecting country roads.
Distances include:
- Big Eddy 50k : 32.2 Miles
- The Eddy Half Marathon : 13.1 Miles
The Big Eddy course loops through each section of Stanley Eddy Park Reserve and uses the roads that connect the trails back to Chi Rho Center. Runners pass the main aid station six times and three additional aid stations twice each, for a total of about twelve aid station stops over roughly 32 miles. The course distance is noted as closer to 51–52K.
The Eddy Half Marathon mixes trails, gravel, and a short paved start and finish. It includes approximately 8 miles of trails and 3 miles of gravel and uses three aid stations, one of which is passed three times. The park trails are scenic and hilly and include noticeable elevation.
Participants have the option to lodge at Chi Rho Center, remain on site for the weekend, and have meals provided there, while using the lake and communal space near the start area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
