Named for a popular summer destination in about 30 miles north of Saratoga Springs, the Lake George was first run in 1996. The race was run in two divisions in 1996, 1998 and 2001. Lake George itself, called the “Queen of American Lakes,” was strategically crucial during the American Revolution because of its position on the Montreal to New York water route. Burgoyne’s decision to bypass the lake’s easy water route to the Hudson River and instead try to reach it through the forests and marshes at the southern end of Lake Champlain was a key component in the British defeat at Saratoga.
