Holiday Hustle 5Kish and 10Kish - Chattanooga

The Holiday Hustle is a trail race held in the Black Creek subdivision on Aetna Mountain near Mt. Aetna in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The event is organized by Evergreen Property Group and Bad Beard Events and supports the Tennessee River Gorge Trust.

Distances:

  • 5Kish - about 3.7 miles, single blue/green loop
  • 10Kish - about 7.2 miles, two same-direction loops

Each loop gains about 600 feet of elevation. The course uses brand-new trails and includes one full aid station with water and snacks located at the main Aetna Trailhead. Participants receive holiday-themed swag and pancakes after the race. Runners may hike the course instead of running.

The start and finish area is a large open field with covered pavilions, picnic tables and grills, a playground, a dog park, and a basketball court. Dogs are welcome to attend but are not permitted to run the race. The event lists the start/finish location as 400 Alpine Way, Chattanooga, TN, with coordinates 35.0181740,-85.4061561.
