Elkmont's Trackless Train Trek Half Marathon - aptly renamed to Elkmont's Hound Dog Half Marathon after local hound dog, Ludivine steals the show by wandering to the starting line in time to join the runners and finish 7th overall in our inaugural event to raise funds for the track and cross country programs at Elkmont High School.
The link below tells a little of the story from our 1st ever half marathon in Elkmont, AL!

Beautiful, CERTIFIED (USATF #AL15062JD) half marathon through the rolling hills of Elkmont, Alabama. The course begins in downtown Elkmont and heads out into the country on the rolling rural roads. About 7-8 miles into the race, runners will move off the road and onto the old L&N Railroad bed and is now known as the Richard Martin Trail and is part of the Rails to Trails Conservancy, where they will run the final 5-6 miles of the half marathon.
There will be a custom finishers medal as well as age group and overall awards. All participants registered by Jan 1, 2017 are guaranteed t-shirt sized specified on registration. There will also be a special award for our 7th place finisher in honor of Ludivine's accomplishment.
Proceeds from this race will benefit the Elkmont High School Cross Country and Track/Field programs.
