About

Conquer the Cove takes place in Roanoke, Virginia, in late May, at Carvins Cove Natural Reserve, and is part of the Roanoke Non Ultra Trail Series. The trail marathon (listed at about 26.5 miles) and the 25K (listed at about 15.8 miles) both start at 6:30 a.m.

Known for demanding courses, the event lets participants explore the park's extensive and well-marked trail network. Carvins Cove is described as the second largest municipal park in the United States, with significant elevation changes and beautiful scenery, including the seasonal bloom of mountain laurel and rhododendron. It is a chance for locals and visitors to test their endurance in a natural setting. The early start helps with warm Virginia days, and trail shoes are recommended.
