Looking for a fast, certified race with a great chance for a PR? This event is for you! This race is great for carbon shoes too!
Starting at Black Creek Park in Fultondale, AL, this marathon & half marathon will be held on the Five Mile Creek Greenway, a rails-to-trail project located 15 minutes north of Birmingham. Runners will race through the Cities of Fultondale, Gardendale, and Brookside on this relatively flat, fast course.
The event is a USATF certified (Boston Qualifier), chip timed and fast! We venture to say it is one of the fastest marathon and half marathon routes in Alabama! Take a look at the results tab we held on this course back in 2020 and 2024-2026 to see for yourself how fast this course is!
Join us on Saturday, February 6, 2027 to possibly set your new PR. If not you will still be helping Unless U who work to continue education and create job training for adults with special needs. Click here to learn more about Unless U - www.unlessu.org
There will be water, sports drinks, and gels only along the course.
