Yeti 7/11 Hour Endurance Run : Sweetwater Creek State Park
The event is a timed endurance run held at Sweetwater Creek State Park, Lithia Springs, Georgia. Participants run repeated laps on a 4-mile loop that includes singletrack, sections of double track, and varied hills. The course passes a hidden lake, a ridgeline reached by a lost jeep road, falls, and historic sites, and it is marked with clear ribbons.
Runners may choose between two time-limited formats. Distances offered:
- 7 hour endurance run
- 11 hour endurance run
The event uses professional chip timing provided by Zen Arcade Timing, with live lap counting, splits, and up-to-date displays for real-time tracking. The group shelter at the park serves as the event base; bathrooms are located in the shelter. An aid station on course is stocked with convenience store style items including hot dogs, honey buns, pixie sticks, craft crackers, and water or electrolyte drinks. Participants are encouraged to bring a personal cooler for special dietary needs.
The event description notes an informal origin tied to skateboard sessions and convenience store culture and emphasizes social aspects such as sharing stories between loops. Awards are given for overall male and female results in each time format. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
