The Firewater 100K and 50K races take participants along the scenic East Lakeshore Trail on the Tellico Reservoir's eastern coast. Renowned for its well-maintained paths, this course has become a favorite, with the 100K featuring a challenging out-and-back route that showcases the trail’s beauty. The 50K starts from the northern point of the 100K’s turnaround, offering a memorable race experience. For those looking for a fun team challenge, the 50K Relay allows two runners to tackle the course together. Additionally, runners can choose between two start times for the 50K, including a charming later start to enjoy the stunning sunset views over Tellico Lake.
