About The Darter Dash
The Darter Dash is a Running race in Pinson, Alabama consisting of a 10K Trail Run and 5K Trail Run.
We're teaming up with Turkey Creek Nature Preserve to host the Darter Dash 5K/10k. It is a fantastic run through the trails at one of Birmingham's great outdoor treasures. These trails include some moderate elevation and you'll run along some beautiful stretches beside Turkey Creek. Only a very short period of both races will be on pavement.
The Preserve protects a stretch of the creek that is the only place in the world where the Vermilion Darter, as well as other Darter species, live. It is truly a unique and beautiful place.
There is also a unique, optional finish down the waterfall tubing slide straight into the creek! ThisKeep Reading is not required by any means, but is highly encouraged because it's just so fun!
