Death by 5k Oak Mountain

Website Registration

Death by 5k Oak Mountain is a unique 24-hour running challenge held at Oak Mountain State Park in Pelham, Alabama. Participants must complete ten 5k runs spaced 2.5 hours apart, starting near the Dogwood Pavilion at the South Trailhead. The course loops counterclockwise from the Lake Trail to Rattlesnake Ridge and back.

The event tests endurance with physical fatigue, sleep deprivation, and night running, requiring headlamps or lights. Between runs, runners can camp in tents or rest in vehicles. The event includes five hot meals and snacks, and finishers receive custom coffins as awards.

Registration is limited to 200 runners. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
