Louisville Lovin' The Hills
Louisville Lovin' The Hills is a trail running event in Fairdale, KY held on May 23, 2026. The event was postponed from February 7, 2026 because of weather. The start and finish area is located in the campground.
The course is single track trail through forest and is described in three linked segments. The shorter loops form the shorter races and additional segments combine to form the longest distance.
Distances
- 50K
- 15 mile
- 6 mile
The course composition in organizer notes describes the Red and Orange trail as the current 6 mile loop. Adding the Blue, Yost, and Purple Heart segments creates the 15 mile route. Adding Siltstone and Scott's Gap to those routes yields the full 50K.
There are recurring training runs in January that preview the course. A packet pickup and a pasta dinner are planned around race logistics at a local outdoor store; the dinner includes meat and vegan options and is provided during packet pickup. After the race participants gather in the Horine Center at the start and finish area for soup and award distribution. Quest Outdoors is listed as a sponsor and prizes are donated by that store. Each finisher receives a wooden medal and additional swag is distributed to early registrants. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
