Holiday Lake 50K++---Revised Course for 2009

The 14th annual Holiday Lake 50K++ race will take place on a revised course from previous years. It will use much of the previous year’s course but will also have a lot of new sections. The new course will use the Lakeside Trail ( LT ) and Carter-Taylor Trail ( CTT ). This will eliminate most of the paved road and add more trail running to the course. The only paved road will be the first 0.6 mile of pavement at the start and an equal amount at the finish. The first lap will go in the clockwise direction and the second loop will go in the counterclockwise direction. This is the opposite of previous years. The previous distance of each loop was around 16.5 to 17 miles. The GPS distance of the new loop is 16.63 miles, probably a little shorter than the previous loop, thus it will still be HL 50K++, a little extra on each loop.
