Sunrise Over Cecil 10K and 4 Mile
The event takes place on 11 April 2027 on Cecil Ashburn Drive in Huntsville, Alabama, with the start and finish located in front of Mellow Mushroom at 2230 Cecil Ashburn Drive. Two distances are offered:
- 10K (6.2 miles)
- 4 Mile
The certified 10K course includes nearly 1,000 feet of elevation gain and is run out-and-back on Cecil Ashburn Drive. The 4-mile race climbs to the top of Cecil with a turnaround near the Land Trust parking lot. There are water stations along the routes, including a station at mile 2 for the 4-mile and an additional station at the 10K turnaround. The event includes two King/Queen of the Mountain points and four special awards for those categories; official results may take time.
Roads will be closed to through traffic and the east side of Cecil Ashburn is expected to close around 5:00 AM. Portable restrooms will be available near the start and finish. Packet pick-up is scheduled Saturday at Fleet Feet Huntsville from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM; race day pick-up will also be available but very early. Parking is available at the Target shopping center, AMC Theater, and Fleet Feet. Both races have a two-hour cutoff and the field is limited to 400 participants. All participants receive a BROOKS technical shirt and a finisher medal. Post-race food and recovery services are provided by local vendors.
