Southern Singletrack is excited to announce that the Widowmaker Ultra and Whiskey Still 5K/10K is back! This race is held at Sprewell Bluff Park in Thomaston, Ga which is just 50 miles south of Atlanta. Sprewell Bluff Park is one of the most beautiful and best kept secrets in Georgia. It features the gently flowing Flint River that meanders thru steep Rocky Bluffs. When you see the magnificent views from the bluffs you won’t believe you are in South Georgia. Proceeds to benefit Sprewell Bluff Park!
8 Hours Ultra Marathon
Whoever can run the most loops of The Widowmaker Trail from 8:00AM to 4:00PM wins the race! Run as many loops as you can until The Widowmaker has you begging for mercy. This trail is a mostly single track 6-mile loop and has some very steep and technical sections. Although this trail is beautiful most of you will want to quit after just one loop.
Whiskey Still 5k/10k
If running for 8 hours scares you then you can choose the 5k or 10k options. The 5k is just as beautiful and winds along the Flint River on singletrack trails and runs by an old whiskey still. The 10k follows the same loop at the 8-Hours Ultra. Both the 5k and 10k races will begin at 8:15AM.
Parking
There is plenty of parking at the park. Please be prepared to pay the 5$ parking pass. This is not included in the race fee.
Swag
Awards will be given to the top male and female in both the Ultra, 10k and 5k options. Top male and female in each race will receive a whiskey jug. All runners in the ultra-marathon will receive a unique mason jar. All 5k and 10k finishers will receive a unique shot glass. All runners will receive a race t-shirt (if signed up before March 11).
