We will be providing race shirts to all registered runners for all Southeastern Trail Runs Races. HOWEVER, You must sign up 10 to 12 days before the race. SIGN UP EARLY and beat the Later Registration price increase and get a shirt.
Southeastern Trail Series, sponsored by Mountain High Outfitters, consists of six races, all right here in the Birmingham area. The series is designed for three purposes. First, to provide great races for everyone that enjoys trail running. Second, running the series races is a great training tool for major trail races such as Blood Rock 100 Mile, Lake Martin 100, or even the Leadville 100 and Western States 100. Finally, the series is designed to prepare runners to successfully run their first ultra. Each race will have at least two distance options, a short race, one lap of the course, and a long race, two laps. Each race in the series is longer and more difficult than the previous. Starting with the third race, the Memorial Day Race, we throw in a climb to the top of Double Oak Mountain. Run the long race, 12 miles, and you get to make the climb to the top twice. With the 4th and 5th races, Hotter 'N Hell in July and Ridge to Blazing Ridge in August we add a healthy dose of HOT! Hotter 'N Hell is significantly harder than the Memorial Day Race. Ridge to Blazing Ridge is very difficult race but it will totally prepare you for Blood Rock. The last race of the trail series is the Blood Rock 25 and 50K race and the Blood Rock 50 and 100 Mile race. The Blood Rock races are the most difficult race in the series. The BR 100 could affectionately be call "The Hardrock of the East!"
In addition to the 6 trail series races Southeastern Trial Runs also presents the Lake Martin 100 in March, The Endless Mile mid-October and the BOO Run for Down syndrome Alabama at the end of October.
Please support our local parks with your time and donations.
