Trussville, AL
The race starts and finishes at the Trussville Entertainment District, so the start line and the post-race area share the same space. Beyond the standard run, there is a relay option where teams of three carry a jerry can filled with water across the course, passing it along however they like, with separate divisions for men's and women's teams. The event benefits clean water and church-planting work in East Africa.

Going by the 2025 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.

How we calculate these stats: RunSesh calculates these figures from the most recent published results of past editions, sourced from RunSignup. We show aggregates only: field size, winning and median times, and the cutoff. We never publish individual finisher tables. Last updated Oct 25, 2026.
Set a goal and get a pace band: every mile split on a card sized for your phone lock screen, so race morning needs no math.

Almost certainly not. Half the 3.1 Miles field finished slower than 35:15, and the last recorded finisher came in around 1:01:03, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.
A field of 270 is big enough that you will have company at your pace without feeling lost in a crowd. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 3.1 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.
The 3.1 Miles winner ran 17:40 while the median finisher took 35:15. That spread points to a broad, mostly recreational field rather than a race dominated by club runners.
