McClellan Madness
McClellan Madness is an endurance trail event held at McClellan Bike Trails in Anniston, Alabama, organized by Dirty Soles Trail Races. The course uses a single 4.1 mile loop on single track that is generally runnable with a few rocky sections. Elevation for one loop is approximately 300 feet. The race starts and finishes at the McClellan bike trailhead on the former Fort McClellan site; organizers note that unexploded ordnance may remain on the property and advise staying on marked trails.
