Don's Backyard Bbq 20k Trail Run Challenge

Don's Backyard BBQ 20K/10K Trail Run Challenge takes place at Fort Yargo State Park in Winder, Georgia. The event offers two solo distances: a 20K and a 10K, run on groomed park trails with rolling hills. The 20K comprises four 5K segments that run in alternating directions; the 10K uses two 5K segments.

Runners aim to complete each 5K within a 45-minute segment, blending speed and endurance for a podium challenge. Participants receive a BBQ meal, beverages, and a tri-blend shirt, with registration capped at 225. The race supports local trail maintenance via the Yargo Trail Crew, and features post-race awards and camaraderie among runners.

The event is not part of any race series. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
