The Fonta Flora 50k and Half Marathon will be held along the trails and banks of Lake James State Park in North Carolina.  Come and enjoy the gentle rolling trails along the shores of Lake James and experience lake and mountain scenery without mountainous trails.  Each race will start and finish at Fonta Flora Brewery's Whippoorwill Farm in Nebo, NC in the shadow of Shortoff Mountain and the Linville Gorge.   After you finish this beautiful race, be sure to enjoy a pint at the brewery!
