Ditto Landing 10k

Ditto Landing 10k takes place in Huntsville, Alabama, on Sunday, November 29, 2026. The event offers a single format, a 10K (6.2 miles) starting at 8:00 a.m., and it is put on by the Huntsville Track Club. Set at Ditto Landing on the Sunday after Thanksgiving, it closes out the holiday weekend with a straightforward, classic distance.

A 10K is a versatile target: long enough to reward some real endurance work, short enough that you can race it hard without a long recovery afterward. If you have been racing 5Ks, this is a natural next step; if you are coming off a fall half marathon, you can carry that fitness into a sharper effort here. An eight-week build with three to four runs per week, one of them a tempo session at roughly your goal pace, will get you ready. In the final week, keep the volume light and add a few strides so your legs feel quick on race morning.
