Point-to-point from the Dry Creek Equestrian Parking Lot to the Dalton Convention Center, sharing its start with the Jewel 50 and running the same return-leg stations as the Jewel 100's back half. Course page: "steady climbs, technical descents" across "runnable and rugged sections of the Pinhoti Trail", finishing through the Rock Garden.
Cut-off pace note: "Must keep at 19min: 57sec mile pace." Average race-day high/low temperature published as 83.3F/60.7F. CONFLICT: the 35 mile finish cut-off is 7:35 pm per the 35 Mile Handbook's own schedule and aid-station chart (and matches its 19:57/mi pace note exactly, 12h00m from a 7:35am start), and is confirmed again in the 18 Mile Handbook's shared schedule table. The 100 & 50 Mile Handbook's own Weekend Schedule table instead lists the 35 miler cut-off as 7:20 pm. The 7:35 pm figure was used as primary because two of three source documents agree with it and it reconciles with the published pace. The official Outdoor Active GPX for this course measures 33.98 mi versus the published 35 mi and 1,097 m (3,599 ft) of ascent versus the published ~5,750 ft, the same mapped-route shortfall pattern as the other three courses.
A trail race on the Pinhoti Trail through northwest Georgia, offering 100, 50, 35 and 18 mile distances that share one trail corridor and converge on a single finish in Dalton. Homepage: "The Georgia Jewel is a trail race built on care for the land, the miles, and the people who move through them."
Current race directors Franklin and Jenny Baker "took on" the race in 2016; the site does not state a founding year, and a runner's own 2018 race-recap video ("My Georgia Jewel 2018 Race Recap - First Ultra, First Ultra DNF") shows the race already existed by 2018. An old URL indexed by the Wayback Machine, georgiajewel.com/2019-utmb-qualifier, shows the race was a UTMB qualifier at least as of 2019; no current UTMB/ITRA status is published for 2026, so itra_points and utmb_running_stones are left null rather than assumed from that old page.

Nobody sees it until we have read it. No account, no sign-in.
This changes nothing on the page on its own. Somebody checks it against the race first.
We want the address of the file the race publishes, not the file. We download it from there so the page can say where the line came from.
We read every one of these and we write back. Every fact here carries the source it came from, and the way a wrong one gets fixed is a person checking it against what you tell us.
NavRun builds your pacing from your own training, then turns it into a plan your crew can follow: when to leave and where to park.
