Located in Reston, VA, Lake Fairfax has a beautiful lake and an awesome trail network. Our courses hit the best singletrack and include some great views of the lake. There are a few short technical sections (more rocks and roots), but most of the course is relatively smooth singletrack. There is barely any pavement on this course. There are no extended climbs, but lots of short ups and downs.
The Spring Backyard Burn (SBYB) is a series of 5 and 10 mile trail running races held on some of the best trail networks in the Northern Virginia Area. All the courses include a mixture of forested fire roads, twisty hiking trails, stream crossings, grassy fields, and minimal pavement.
