About the race
The Fort Yargo Ultra is a trail running event at Fort Yargo State Park near Winder, Georgia, held on May 8, 2027. The course uses single track trails and a 15.6 mile loop around the park and lake, with rolling hills and lake views. The event offers both a 50K and a 25K distance:
- 50K - two laps of the 15.6 mile loop
- 25K - one lap of the 15.6 mile loop
The 50K is 100% on trails and uses the same loop twice. The race includes three fully stocked aid stations, drop bag support for 50K runners (two one-gallon bags provided at check-in and available at aid stations #2 and #5), and gear storage at the start and finish area. A canine run is offered; canine participants register in the 25K field and start after the 25K field. Park entrance fees are included in the race fee. Race check-in and packet pick-up take place at the Lake Pavilion by the visitors center at 210 S Broad St, Winder, GA 30680. There are awards for top finishers in several age and gender categories, and all finishers receive a medal and a race shirt or hat. There are no race day registrations.
