The Half Naked Half Marathon is an Anniston, Alabama race presented by the Anniston Runners Club. It starts and finishes at McClellan Park Medical Mall on Town Center Drive. The event is held annually and offers two distances: a certified 13.1-mile half marathon and a quarter marathon. Both races use chip timing, and the half marathon counts as an official time. The course closes at 11 a.m.; anyone still on the course after that is considered on their own. The half marathon follows a simple out-and-back route, fitting the race’s deliberately “stripped down” personality. The name originates from the event’s humble beginnings, but runners do not actually have to run half-naked. Runners and walkers of all abilities can participate. Age-group awards are given in 10-year divisions for both distances. Half marathon finishers receive a medal, and participants in both races get a long-sleeve shirt, provided they register early.

The Chief Ladiga 100 is a 100-mile ultramarathon held on the paved Chief Ladiga Trail in Alabama, which connects to the Pinhoti Trail system. The course is an out-and-back design, requiring participants to traverse the same path in both directions over day and night. While relatively flat for a 100-mile race, the distance, the repeated section, and the 30-hour time limit present a significant endurance challenge. Aid stations are positioned approximately every 5 miles, establishing a consistent pace and simplifying logistics compared to more remote mountain races. The race has a limited field size and attracts ultrarunners seeking a fast 100-mile course and a Western States 100 qualifying opportunity. The Anniston Runners Club, supported by committed volunteers, manages the event and contributes to local charities.
