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!
