This year’s running of the Huntsville Half Marathon will be the event’s 35th annual race, along a course that follows a mostly fast and flat out-and-back track that begins and ends at Huntsville’s Hillwood Baptist Church, with a run through the southeast portion of the city.
The race also along a two-mile section of the Aldridge Creek Greenway, a 3.5-mile paved pathway designed for runners, walkers, joggers, cyclists and strollers that runs from Mountain Gap Road to Ditto Landing in the southern part of the city.

Overview
Course Description
Designed to honor the service of veterans in Iraq and Afghanistan and support those recovering from combat injuries in both conflicts, the race starts at 8:00 AM with a run around the neighborhoods around Hillwood Baptist Church for the first three miles of the race.
The remainder of the race takes runners along Huntsville’s Chicamauga Trail Southeast and through a number of twists and turns down to the intersection with Green Cove Road, where the race course winds its way to the Aldridge Creek Greenway.
After the two-mile stretch along the greenway path, runners then head back in reverse along the course they’ve just run, crossing Green Cove Road to Chaney Thompson Road and then onto Wynterhall Road, all the way back to the finish at the church.
There is a 3-hour time limit for runners in the half marathon, which is limited to the first 1,000 entrants.
