To register visit: https://runsignup.com/Race/WV/Marlinton/GreatGreenbrierRiverRace \nYou start in Marlinton\, WV run to the trail and take it north to the turn around point then right back into town\, to make 3 miles\, then you jump in your boat and paddle down the river to the blue bridge in Buckeye\, which is about 4 miles of paddling\, then you run over to your bike and ride south down the trail for a bit and turn around to head north past where you started and all the way back up to Marlinton making a 10 mile bike ride and the end of the race! Teamwork is encouraged\, but if you want to do it solo\, you certainly can! \nLodging is available nearby at Watoga State Park. \nReserve lodging: \nBook Now
