Welcome to the City of Hurricane Crush Run to benefit the Meeks Mountain Trail Alliance. Join us on Saturday, February 7th, for the Crush Run Trail 10 miler, 5k run or hike, and Kids' Run. All proceeds go to support further development and maintenance of Meeks Mountain Trails Alliance.
Get Ready to Crush it and catch a glimpse of what the Hurricane Crush Run is all about!
Race details
Packet pickup will be held on Friday, February 6th, from 5:00-6:30 pm and again on Saturday morning from 8:00-10:00 am, at Hurricane City Park's big red barn. All race participants in the 10-miler, 5k, and kids' run can pick up their packets at that time. After 10:00 on Saturday morning, packets will be available for pickup at the starting line in the back of the bowl. There will be signs directing you to the start line.
Bathrooms are available in the park, and portable restrooms will be available at the Start/Finish line.
To reach the start and finish area, you’ll cross an active set of train tracks. Please take your time, look both ways, and stay alert as you cross. Trains do occasionally pass through, but the area will be clearly marked and monitored by safety volunteers to guide you and ensure everyone’s safety.
We appreciate your attention and patience—cross carefully, follow volunteer directions, and you’ll be at the start line in no time, ready to run.
Plan for an extra 15 minutes to walk to the start/finish line.
The 10 miler has a 3-hour time limit, and the last aid station will close at 11:30.
Water and sports drinks are available on the course. The 5k will have one aid station, and the 10-miler will have access to an aid station three times.
Trail Sister Approved Race
We are pleased to be a Trail Sister Approved Race!
Swag and Finish Line
Every runner gets the MMTA Crush Run swag, tote, and finisher award. Expect a finish line bonfire, marshmallows, Orange and Grape Crush, and plenty of hot and ready pizza from our friends at Little Caesars.
Course
The 10-miler, 5k, and Kids Run all begin and end at the new Huntington Federal Shelter at the back of the bowl, which is a 15-minute walk from the parking lot at Hurricane City Park. Each course will be run on hand-built, single-tract trails. Expect it to have rocks, roots, and lots of rolling fun.
The kids' run is approximately 1 mile and begins at the Huntington Federal Shelter and follows pink flags.
