Event overview
The Yeti Snakebite is a timed trail event held in Atlanta in August. The race uses a repeating 6-mile loop and offers long-distance options including 50 miles and 50 km. The format gives runners a fixed running window of 8.88 hours to complete as many loops as they wish. Prize categories begin at 25K, and the event notes an additional course option beyond the 50K distance. Registration fee is listed as $88.80, which includes registration fees.
Course, timing and policies
The course crosses a river and follows wooded trails with significant hills and summer heat conditions. The event provides chip timing through Zen Arcade Timing, which the organizer states offers precise timing, real-time tracking, live lap counting and splits. Organizers note that participants will not need a crew or a pacer for this format.
Accessibility and inclusion policies state that athletes with disabilities must be able to run the trail course; tethers are permitted for visually impaired athletes and leg prosthetics are allowed. Crutches, braces or poles may be used with race director approval. The organizer accepts entrants' declared gender for registration and provides a process to record preferred pronouns for non-binary entrants. The refund policy states that refunds, deferrals, and transfers are not offered due to incurred race expenses. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
