Event Description:
Join Evergreen Property Group and Bad Bear Events for the inaugural Holiday Hustle Trail Race in the picturesque Black Creek subdivision supporting the Tennessee River Gorge Trust! Experience the thrill of the brand-new trails on Aetna Mountain with race options for everyone: a challenging 10K, a swift 5K, and a fun run for kids. Set against the stunning backdrop of Mt. Aetna, this event offers the perfect way to get outside and enjoy the beauty of nature just before Christmas. Mark your calendars for December 22, 2024, and celebrate the holiday season with family, friends, and fellow trail enthusiasts.
This is a no frills, no pressure, no awards race! ALL ability levels welcome and YES, you can hike the course if you do not want to run it.
The 5k-ish is a single blue/green loop and the 10k-ish is two same-direction loops. There will be 1 full aid station with Tailwind, water and snacks at the main Aeta Trailhead as well as a water-only station at the bottom of the loop.
The start/finish has a large open field, covered pavilions with picnic tables and grills, a playground, dog park, and basketball court. So, be sure to bring the entire family including the pups for a day of fun even if you're not running!
