From the Organizer
Eddy Trail Races are based at Chi Rho Center on the south side of Lake Sylvia, on the outskirts of Annandale, MN. The 50k and a half marathon run through the Stanley Eddy Park Reserve, a wonderful series of trails in our nook of the state. Big Eddy and The Eddy are more than just races, they are beautiful MN trails, an experience of elevation, pain, perseverance, comradery, and so much more! Whether you are new to the trails or these distances or you are a seasoned trail distance runner, both races will push you to your limit and give you great success. Our aid station crews will be supporting you every step of the way.
Have you ever gone to a race and been rushed before or after because of lodging or other logistics? Have you ever met people on the course and then not seen them again? You have the opportunity to lodge at Chi Rho, hang out with fellow runners for the weekend, and not worry about your meals, all while relaxing at an amazing lake in central Minnesota.
