Dizzy Fifties - Monte Sano State Park
Dizzy Fifties is a trail running event at Monte Sano State Park in Huntsville, AL, organized by the Huntsville Track Club and scheduled for November 21, 2026. The event uses a figure-8 style loop of about 10 miles and roughly 1,000 ft of climbing per loop.
Distance options
- 50K, 3 loops, ~3,000 ft total gain
- 20 Mile, 2 loops
- 10 Mile, 1 loop
All distances follow the same loop. Runners must check in at the finish arch after each 10-mile loop for lap counting. The race is cupless; participants receive a reusable cup as part of race swag. There is one fully stocked pavilion aid station with water, sodas, sweet and salty options, and space for personal aid. Aid access: five opportunities for the 50K, three for the 20 Mile, and one for the 10 Mile. Medical support is provided on site by HEMSI.
Logistics and rules include limited parking near the pavilion, a packet pickup location at RunningLane, a deadline of November 17 to change to a shorter distance, and a strict no bib-transfer policy. Prohibited on course are bicycles, strollers, pets, roller skates, and skateboards. The use of headphones or earbuds is strongly discouraged because the course is not closed to other users.
