Morrow Mountain State Park
Albemarle, NC
9am
The Carolina's toughest 15K
part of the Uwharrie Mountains
January 4, 2014

This may be our toughest trail race yet!
The Race will challenge runners on looped
courses up and over three mountain tops.
Rising up High in the sky are the Uwharrie Mountains. Steep,Rugged and awaiting your arrival as we kick the 2014 Race year.
Morrow Mountain is one of the highest peaks in the ancient Uwharrie Mountains of central North Carolina. At one time they rose to nearly 20,000 feet above sea level, but erosion has gradually worn them down to little more than high hills. Although the park contains several peaks, Morrow Mountain is a high point at 936 feet.
The 15K course will wind to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain, and Hattaway Mountain, and then to the top of Morrow Mountain.

Course Information:

Course Description

We will be starting out on pavement, for spacing.
The Course here at Morow Mountains State Park has a little bit of everything. From hard packed earth, to very rocky sections of trail. Be prepared to duck under low hanging limbs and jump downed trees on the trail. The trail is mostly single track and there are some sections of serious elevation gains on the course.
Morrow Mountain is part of the Uwahrrie Mountain range. The Uwahrrie mountains are believed to be some of the oldest mountains in the world.
