Buts Bearly Ultra

The BUTS Bearly Ultra is a trail running event held at Red Mountain Park in Birmingham, Alabama, featuring two distances: a 27-mile ultra and a 13.5-mile race. The course offers a diverse trail experience, including runnable old rail beds, technical single tracks, and scenic overlooks like Grace's Gap. Runners encounter about 1,500 feet of elevation per 13.5-mile loop, with the longer distance consisting of two loops.

Aid stations provide refreshments multiple times, and finishers receive hot food, cold drinks, and a unique medal. The event supports local trail maintenance and partners with Red Mountain Park and Jeff Co Greenways to preserve area trails. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
