Dizzy Fifties - November 21, 2026
Dizzy Fifties is a trail race event in Monte Sano State Park, Huntsville, AL, organized by the Huntsville Track Club. The event offers looped trail distances and follows a figure-8-style course that uses the South Plateau, Firetower, Family Bike Trail (Bucca), Logan-Keith, and the Sinks trail. A pavilion aid station sits near 6.4 miles on the loop.
Distance options
- 50K : 3 loops, about 3,000 ft total gain
- 20 Mile : 2 loops
- 10 Mile : 1 loop
Each loop is approximately 10 miles with about 1,000 ft of climbing. Runners must check in at the arch after completing each loop so lap counts are recorded. The event is cupless; participants receive a reusable cup as part of race swag. One fully stocked aid station is available at the pavilion, and personal aid may be set up on the picnic tables there. Aid access varies by distance.
Medical support is provided on site by HEMSI. Packet pickup is scheduled at RunningLane on Friday, 11/20, and bibs and shirts are also available on race morning. Register by 10/15/26 to guarantee shirt size. Distance changes to a shorter race are allowed only before Tuesday, 11/17/26; no race-day switches. Bibs must be worn on the front and transfers are not permitted.
The 50K is the only distance eligible for the Huntsville Track Club Slam. RunningLane sponsors awards for top three men and women in each distance. A course photographer will capture images during the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
