All Runners registered by July 26th Will Receive Race Shirts

We are giving custom made, fully sublimated shirts at R2BR. These shirts must be ordered 6 weeks prior to the race. Consequently, we must "guess" at the number and size of shirts we will need. Everyone that registers by July 26th will get a race shirt. If we miss on the numbers, the shirts will be given out at the race based on registration date.

About the Ridge to Blazing Ridge Race

Race 5 of the Southeastern Trail Series, Ridge to Blazing Ridge, will start at the Redbud Pavilion next to the BMX Track. The race will start at 7:00 AM. View the course map and download the GPX file on the Southeastern Trail Runs website. The course is difficult and it will be hot. This race is a little harder than the previous two races and it will probably be very hot. There are two aid station on the mountain at mile 3.75 and a water only stop at mile 7.5. Runners MUST carry water at all times during the race. NO EXCEPTIONS!! For best results, we suggest drinking Tailwind in the place of water. We supply Tailwind at both aid station along with plenty of water.
