Awards are given to the top three male and female finishers in each race – 50k, 25k, 15k. The awards are made by the Dickson County Woodturners. They are made from wood from the Montgomery Bell State Park and then engraved with the event logo and award information. All finishers will receive finisher medals. Since this race began in 2014, it has continued to grow each year and draw runners from all over the country.
