Cove Lake State Park

The Cove Lake State Park course has been used annually for high school cross country meets as well as a local summer road race.  The MS course is mostly grass and rolling. There is an exterior and an interior loop.   There are 3-4 paved bike path cross overs and a concrete bridge crossing of about 40 meters. Some may want to stick with non-spiked shoes. The ES course is a single grass loop mostly flat.  Both races start in the open field below the resturaunt and finish in the outfield of the softball field.  Directions:  Take I-75 North (from Knoxville) to exit 134 (for 25W).  Bear right off exit and proceed on 25W past stoplight for .8 mile, the entrance to the park will be on your left.  Please follow security and parking volunteer instructions once in the park.

OTHER INFO:

The cost of the program is $15 for the entire year.  Cross country does not count as one of the sports in the $75 fee, it stands alone.  Please pay that fee in the office. CC participants will need regular athletic shoes and a CC t-shirt ($10 at the office).
