Race weekend is almost here! We are excited to see all of our running friends and families this weekend at Crooked Creek. The Runner Informational email will be sent tomorrow with all the details for this weekend. We will also do a Facebook live Q&A session Thursday night at 7pm EST to help answer any questions you may have prior to race weekend. Once again we have a record number of participants from 25 states and Canada joining us this weekend attempting to tame the Crooked Creek trails. Packet pickup will be Friday night beginning at 4pm at the dining hall and the scouts will once again be serving a spaghetti dinner for us to enjoy. Packet pickup will also be available on race day beginning one hour prior to each event. ALL packet pickups will be held in the heated dining hall.

Next thing you know everybody is gone! That is a wrap from Crooked Creek. Thank you for a great weekend from one tired crew who decided it would be better to take the picture indoors instead of the dead of darkness. Bourbon Country 25K/50K registrations open on Friday along with the 2025 Edition of the Crooked Creek Trail Weekend!

One more day to the Crooked Creek Ultra Weekend presented by Swags Sport Shoes! For some of you at least….others have two days. Don’t forget we have packet pickup tonight from 4 to 8pm. Come hungry the scouts are already getting to work on dinner.

This is what 100 gallons of water looks like in the bed of a full size truck. I think we will keep everyone hydrated. 🙂

Sorry we have to send you through the website instead of a direct link to the file, but facebook claims we are spamming you with the map :)

I’ll be available to answer any course-related questions during packet pickup and before each start time. Plus, we’ll have a large map on display and a QR code available for you to download the map right to your phone.

We are looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend on the trails! Crooked Creek is dressed and ready to dance. 🏞️ See you soon! 🙌
