Lake James 7 Miler & 5k Race Description

The Lake James 7 Miler & 5k races start and finish at Fonta Flora’s charming Whippoorwill Farm in Nebo, NC and take runners on the beautiful trails of Lake James State Park. With stunning views and light rolling hills, both courses are perfect for either a trail beginner or a seasoned runner.

The 7 Miler starts at 9AM and the 5k starts at 9:15AM. Both courses start with a loop around the Fonta Flora field to spread out runners before entering the trail. Both races are chip timed and are rain or shine. There is a 2 hour course aid time limit.

Runners will receive a commemorative race t shirt and medal included in their registration. Enjoy a beer on us! A Fonta Flora beer is included in registration for those 21+ at the Orchard Bar. Must be able to provide a valid ID.
