About the race
Sublett Point 50K, 25K, 5K is a trail running event held at McMullen Cove in Gurley, Alabama (38 McMullen Ln). The event offers multiple race distances on the Two Mountain trail system and Two Mountain Greenway, and proceeds support childhood cancer research.
The event distances include:
- 50K trail completing two loops, mostly single-track, approximately 5,000+ feet of climbing.
- 25K trail on Two Mountain Trail, mostly single-track, approximately 2,500+ feet of climbing.
- 5K Sublett Challenge on Two Mountain Greenway, paved climb to Sublett Point.
Course characteristics include steep climbs, technical terrain, fast runnable sections, and extensive forest canopy coverage. Notable landmarks along the routes include Indian Trees, Pancake Hollow waterfall, Blake’s Cabin, Sublett Point overlook, and Silo Hill. Aid stations are placed at multiple points on the course and are never more than four miles apart.
The event schedules packet pick-up at Fleet Feet Huntsville on Friday and at McMullen Cove on Saturday. Awards are given for overall and masters categories, and a King of the Mountain award recognizes the fastest climb to Sublett Point. A new Ruck Division is offered for athletes who wish to run with added weight. The 25K and 50K share the same loop; the 50K completes the loop twice.
