Ice Breaker 8k

Lakeside Park - Piedmonth SC

Trail Race to Warm Up this Winter

The Ice Breaker 8K is back and Square One Events will be hosting it for the 5th time at Lakeside Park in Piedmont, SC. The trail system at Lakeside Park is ideal for beginners looking to test out their trail shoes or even advanced runners looking to find some speed around the various switchbacks and turns!

The course will feature a rolling run/walk/hike through the woods using the "Every Minute Trail" and "All Day, Baby Trail". We never know what the weather will be like, but we know you'll have a great time together. Come join the fun and add this race to your early season schedule now. Runners, walkers, hikers and furry friends (on leash) are welcome. Due to the terrain, strollers are not recommended.

Start/Finish & Parking

Start/Finish will be between the baseball diamonds and the football field on the east side of Lakeside Park. Parking is available in the marked spaces around the baseball fields.

Single track trails that are beginner friendly with minimal roots and just a few gradual inclines. The course starts with a short lap around the baseball diamond sidewalk to space out the 150 runners before heading into the trail head which includes several undulations, switch backs and a central hub where our aid station will be located. You will pass by this hub and the aid station twice before returning on the All Day Trail to the finish line!
