We\u2019re getting close to one of the biggest and best trail races of the year, the Haw Ridge Trail Race. \u00a0One of KTC’s hallmark events, it features one of East Tennessee’ best and most well known parks that offers more than thirty miles of trail (only eight of which will be toured in the race). The July 11th race will once again stage from the CVTA Headquarters at 299 Old Edgemoor Road (formerly known as\u00a0 the Life Development Center).\u00a0 Here’s a\u00a0map\u00a0<\/a>to the race site.\u00a0 The Kids Trail Mile begins at 7:30 am, and the eight mile journey up, over, and around the park starts at 8:00 am.<\/p>\n

Registration will remain open right up till the start of the race, but you’ll save money by pre-registering, as the registration fee jumps up a week prior to the race, July 3 at 11:59pm. \u00a0Here’s a\u00a0link<\/a>\u00a0to the registration page. \u00a0 Packet pickup will take place the morning of the race starting at 7am.<\/p>\n

There will be a waterside aid station roughly halfway through the course offering water and Tailwind. \u00a0We strongly urge you to carry your own bottle, pack, or cup to ensure adequate hydration.\u00a0 If you don’t have anything, we can supply a reusable Hydrapak Speedcup at the registration table. \u00a0Either way, this is a midsummer race, so it’s imperative to have something to drink from to ensure you have enough fluid.\u00a0We won\u2019t allow drinking from the spout of our coolers.\u00a0 That’s a nasty habit and risks the spread of germs and sickness.<\/p>\n

We always can use more volunteers (manning the water stop and course\/road monitors in particular). Also – if anyone has or knows someone who has a motor boat that might be willing to help get the water jugs to the picnic table Friday afternoon (July 10), please let us know.\u00a0 And if you’re unable to run the race, remember that volunteering is a great way to share in the fun. If friends or family are coming to cheer you on, encourage them to sign up as a volunteer. This\u00a0link\u00a0<\/a>will take you to the volunteer signup page.<\/p>\n

We also want to remind you that we always have TTT hoodies, hats, and stickers for sale in our online store, as well as at the race for purchase. \u00a0Visit our online store at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And don’t forget the TTT Grand Prix.<\/a> \u00a0We keep track of points that accrue during the season.\u00a0Top three finishers in each of the four divisions\u2014as long as they’re KTC members and volunteer at least twice at TTT races\u2014will be awarded valuable prizes at the end of the year.\u00a0 Think free shoes.\u00a0 Think free races (lots of them!)<\/p>\n
