Hot to Trot

Canton, United States • 20 Jul 2025

Hot to Trot is an ultrarunning event held at Boling Park in Canton, Georgia, featuring 4-hour and 8-hour race options. The course is a roughly 1-mile loop combining grass, trail, and hard-packed dirt, designed to be flat and fast without significant elevation changes. The race embraces the challenge of Georgia's hot and humid July weather, encouraging runners to test their endurance in tough conditions.
