We are excited to announce a brand-new Epic Race coming to Huntsville, Alabama!
This is an official race supported by the City of Huntsville — with roads closed for runners and walkers, so you can focus on the challenge and the views!
One of Huntsville’s most breathtaking sights awaits at the top of Cecil Ashburn Drive. This race will push athletes to their limits with Alabama’s toughest 10K, featuring stunning city views and an unforgettable sunrise finish experience.
🏔 Epic 10K
This certified 10K course packs nearly 1,000 feet of elevation gain and descent into 6.2 demanding miles. With roads closed to through traffic, runners can take on the climb, conquer the descent, and soak in the epic scenery along the way.
🌄 4 Mile Race to the Top
We’re also offering a 4-mile race to the top of Cecil!
If you’re worried about making the 2-hour cutoff, this is a great option for you.
This is a race for those who love hills, grit, and unforgettable views.
⏱ There will be a 2-hour cutoff for both races.
The race is limited to 400 people so register early!
All participants will receive a BROOKS technical shirt and a finisher medal.
