Join us September 19th (10 mile race) and 20th (50K race) for the Standing Boy trail Festival at Standing Boy Trails in Columbus GA! The amount of love and detail that has went into this trail design by Standing Boy is second to no other trail. Standing Boy has created an awesome trail system for everyone to enjoy! The flowing and smooth single track trails whip around the side of the Chattahoochee to give everyone an amazing trail experience. We hope that we are able to create a challenging, fast, and beautiful race course that will make everyone come and visit Standing Boy after the race. Proceeds from the race will benefit Standing Boy Trail System.
The course is a 10 mile loop that comes back through the start and finish area each time. The 50K will do the loop 3 times while the 10 miler will just complete it once. Runners are welcome to set up a drop bag at the start and finish area for the 50K but we’ll also have a fully stocked aid station to make sure everyone can meet their goals for the day. First 5 mile loop: https://strava.app.link/M5nqratAIWb 2nd 5 mile loop: https://strava.app.link/QduMxIuAIWb The Night time Vertical 5K on Friday night is a out and back up and down the mountain with about 400 feet of gain. A headlamp or light is REQUIRED to run this race.
If you finish the Bootlegger 100 in 2026 and complete the Standing Boy 50K you enter into our raffle where we will be giving out an entry into the 2027 Western States 100.
Friday Night Vertical 5K: 8pm Saturday 10 mile race: 7:30am Sunday 50K: 7:30am Choose to run 1, 2, or all 3 races! If you plan on running all 3 races email us @ revolutionrunning@hotmail.com and we'll send you code to save 20%.
Every participant will receive a unique medal for completing each race. All 5K participants will get a small insulated cooler, 10 milers will receive a beach towel, and the 50K participants will get a t-shirt!
Everyone must pay ahead of time to park (if you already don’t have a year pass- not a State Park). Parking is tight so there is a limited number of entrants for this event. Please carpool if you can.
The 50K cut off is 9.5 hours (5pm) & the 10 mile race cut off is 3.5 hours.
We're very excited to host a Canicross race at Standing Boy. This 10 mile race will start 5 minutes after the 10 mile race Saturday and it will start on the opposing loop to avoid any trail congestion.
All runners can receive 100% refund until 3 months before the race date. After that there will be no refund.
