Frozen Yeti - Huntsville, AL

Frozen Yeti - Huntsville, AL takes place in Huntsville, Alabama, on December 19, 2026. Two trail distances are on the program: a 10-mile and a 5-mile. Both are short enough to keep the event to a single morning, and the pairing lets a group enter together with runners of different levels finishing within a reasonable window of each other.

Ten miles is an honest test without the training cost of a marathon, and it slots well into a winter where your main goal is months away. If you are keeping a base through December, either distance can be raced hard with no taper beyond an easy day or two. North Alabama trail is rocky and rooty in places, so pick shoes with tread and accept splits a little slower than you would run on pavement.
