Lake Martin 100

The Lake Martin 100 is an ultra trail running event held in Alexander City, Alabama, featuring 100-mile, 50-mile, and 27-mile race options. The course consists of three 25-mile loops primarily on single-track trails (75%) with some double-track carriage paths and gravel roads, avoiding paved roads except for a short walking path near an aid station. The race is designed as a step-up challenge for runners progressing from shorter ultras to longer distances.

There are two main aid stations, Cabin (start/finish) and Heaven Hill, spaced about 5 to 7 miles apart on the trail, simplifying crew logistics. Pacers are allowed for 100-mile runners after 50 miles, and drop bags are supported for 50 and 100-mile participants. The event emphasizes a supportive atmosphere to help runners achieve their goals.
