Black Warrior-Phillip Parker Memorial Trail Runs

Bankhead National Forest - Moulton Alabama

The 50K and 25k start together, branch off at 8 miles, and then finish at the same place. The 50k and 25k get the same tech shirt and food.  Top 3 males and top 3 females get awards on the 25k. If we have a lot of 25k runners, we may give more. You will pass 2 aid stations on the 25k, and you could walk 50 yards to another one.

You will not get lost on the 25k.  Unless you go crazy and take off through the middle of the forest. Not many places that trails cross, and they are well marked.

On the 25k, there are aid stations at every turn but one, and it is the well marked turn off the gravel road. The middle 10 miles of the 25k are a true single track trail. No creek crossings on the 25k, but 3 on the 50k.  If we have normal weather, you will get your feet wet during the race. There is no time limit, and the 50k is run concurrently.  It will take many runners over 8 hours to do the 50k, so there will be many runners behind you.

Hikers/Walkers Welcome!  You could walk the whole 25k (15.5 miles) and finish well ahead of the last 50k runner.
