Event Overview
The US Road Running event in Gadsden, Alabama, takes place at James Martin Trail Park, located directly behind the Gadsden Mall. This racing event offers participants a variety of distances held on a pea gravel trail surface. Runners can choose between the following distances:
- 5K
- 10K
- Half Marathon (13.1 Miles)
The course layouts are designed as out-and-back routes. For the 5K, participants complete the out-and-back loop two times. Those participating in the 10K complete the out-and-back loop four times. The Half Marathon distance requires completing an out-and-back loop six times.
All participants must register through the official RunSignup platform before the event, as there is no registration available on the day of the race. Packet pickup is conducted on-site during a brief window before the race begins. The event includes a course time limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes for all distances. Finishers represent their achievement with specialized medals, and the event features a points system for the US Road Running series and a best costume competition.
