Fort Yargo Thrill in The Hills

The Thrill in the Hills is an annual trail running event held at Fort Yargo State Park in Winder, Georgia. It offers three race distances: 5 miles, a half marathon (13.1 miles), and a challenging 50K, which can be run solo or as a relay team of two or three. The course features a mix of single and double track trails with rolling hills, roots, and technical sections, providing a scenic off-road experience that immerses runners in nature away from the city.

Aid stations are strategically placed along the course, and participants receive chip timing, custom finisher mugs, and tri-blend shirts. Awards are given to top finishers in various age groups. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
