Rocky 50 Trail Race
Huntsville, United States • 13 Feb 2027
Rocky 50
Rocky 50 is a trail race held at Huntsville State Park on February 13, 2027. The event uses looped courses that start at the edge of Lake Raven and travel through the park's trail system with rolling terrain, many exposed tree roots, pine-needle covered surfaces, scenic bridges, and lakeside sections.
Distances include:
- 50 mile (three 16.7 mile loops)
- 50K (one 14.6 mile short lap then one 16.7 mile lap)
- 13.1 mile (one 13.1 mile modified lap)
- Youth 1 mile
A full lap has roughly 1,250 feet of elevation gain and equal loss. The course is extensively marked with caution tape, directional arrows, and confidence markers; signs indicate where shorter distances split from longer loops. Aid stations provide hot and cold options, and the route is arranged for easy crew and drop bag access. A specific Bridge Aid Station is intended mainly as a water refill for the half marathon and may offer limited snacks.
The event is cupless; runners should bring their own cup or bottle. All races are chip timed with ankle chips to be returned if a runner leaves the course. Pacers are permitted under event rules, require registration, must start and end at an aid station, and are limited to one pacer per runner.
