Hot to Trot - July 26, 2026
Hot to Trot is a timed loop running event held at Boling Park in Canton, Georgia. The course is an approximately one mile loop that mixes grass, trail and hard packed dirt. The route is relatively flat with no significant elevation change.
The event is organized by the Georgia Ultrarunning & Trailrunning Society (GUTS), a non-profit club founded in 2004. There are two time-based options:
- 8-hour option
- 4-hour option
One aid station is located at the start and finish area. It will provide water, electrolyte drink, sodas, ice and common ultrarunner snacks such as chips, cookies, candy and pickles. Popsicles and watermelon are likely to appear. Runners may set up personal tents around the start and finish area.
Weather in late July is expected to be hot and humid, with temperatures often reaching the 90s in Georgia. Organizers note that dehydration and electrolyte imbalance are risks and that the race director may remove participants who appear to be in danger. Registration closes on July 24 at 5:59 PM ET. No refunds or transfers are allowed. GUTS membership is available for a yearly fee and offers race discounts and other benefits. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
