Land Between the Lakes Challenge

Saturday, March 28, 2026 – Sunday, March 29, 2026 - 8am

Energy Lake Area, 5501 Energy Lk Rd, Cadiz, LBL

The LBL Challenge is back with both 12 and 24 hour options. We asked, you answered, we listened – with near-even interest in each format, we’re doing both for the return! Delivering a USARA-sanctioned AR built from an old-school race that got us hooked.

LENGTH: 12 and 24 Hour options
DISCIPLINES: Navigating, Biking, Trekking, Paddling
DISTANCES: 24HR – Finish in under 60 miles / Full clear, plan on 100+
12HR – Finish in under 20 miles / Full clear, plan on 60+
These distances are fully-approachable for first timers.
WHERE: Land Between the Lakes, KY (Energy Lake Area)
WHEN: Saturday, March 28
WHO: The 12-hour race is open to solos and teams. The 24-hour race is teams only, due to boat logistics. See the FAQ below if you’re looking for a teammate.
USARA Sanctioned

THE COURSE: This is a thinking race. Lots of off-trail travel and cross-country navigation define the LBL. Foot, bike, and boat legs will be stitched together by your route choices and decisions.

There’s actual singletrack! + gravel and rough FS roads. The paddle will be strategically placed and manageable. Expect a 5 gallon bucket for a resupply-reprieve (more details later).

COST: 12HR – $145 ; 24HR – $325
Registration Closes: March 20
