Husky Trail Fest
The Husky Trail Fest in Trussville, AL offers multiple trail distances on a repeated 5K loop that follows the Original Husky Challenge route as closely as possible. The loop begins and ends in the Trussville Youth Football Field parking lot and the course layout requires multiple laps for longer distances.
Distances available:
- 50K
- 25K
- 15K
- 5K
Two self-serve aid stations are located on the course. Participants in the 50K and 25K have the option to set up a personal aid station in their car in the event parking lot or inside a cooler or storage box at the start/finish area aid station. Multi-lap participants (50K, 25K, 15K) receive a dog tag at registration that is punched each lap to serve as a lap counter. A 50K relay is offered; each relay team receives a baton that must be punched and passed between legs, and team members receive their dog tags once the final team member finishes. 5K finishers receive a dog tag at completion.
All proceeds support the Trussville Historical Society. The event was postponed from November 21, 2026 to March 20, 2027. The event notes that participants who expect to be on trail after sundown should bring a headlamp and that there is a hard cutoff for all participants.
