Yak 'N Run Race Description

The Yak 'n Run is back! Join us on August 16, 2025 at the Perry County Community Lake for a Kayak (or canoe or SUP) and run!

Fun and challenging, we will have two distance options for this event.

The short course is a ~1/2 mile kayak in the lake, followed by a 1 mile out-and-back run on the trail around the lake.

The long course is a ~1 mile kayak followed by one 3.5 mile lap around the lake.

The long course will have another option of a team competition. One person kayaks the 1 mile, and then they tag off and the second runs the 3.5 mile lake trail.

You provide your own kayak, paddle and life jacket! But never fear - we have lots of friends with more than one boat in the garage, so let us know - the earlier the better - that you need one of the items.

Participants start in waves of ten boats, starting and exiting the lake at the beach area.

Register early - spaces are limited! All proceeds will go to myTEAM Triumph - helping everyone reach the finish line!

LIFE JACKETS REQUIRED, AND MUST BE WORN! Please help us minimize risk for our event!

Sponsors appreciated! Volunteers and participants register at the link above!
