Welcome to the Huntsville Track Club's Ditto Landing 10K
benefiting the HTC's Harold & Louise Tinsley Scholarship Fund
The original HTC Scholarship Fun Run was first held over 25 years ago and created specifically for the purpose of raising funds for the HTC Scholarship Fund. While the name, date, location and distance of this race have changed, its mission will remain the same. The Scholarship Fund has been the designated charity for this race and the Ditto Landing 10K will continue the mission of its predecessor. Participants will be able to make individual donations to the Scholarship Fund during the race registration process.

From Endurance Grid
Endurance Grid is here to help you understand the sport, decide if it's the right fit, and learn how to prepare. For course distances, logistics, and race-day specifics, always defer to the race organizer's event page.
The 10K is the distance where running stops feeling like a starting point and starts feeling like a sport. Long enough to require a real training block. Short enough that race day is fully manageable for a first-timer who's put in the work.
Race day energy at a 10K is community at its best — strangers cheering you by name, people moving toward the same goal, an atmosphere that solo training can't replicate. It's fast enough that you'll spend the whole race pushing rather than managing your effort.
This is also the distance that builds the base for everything else. Most athletes who go on to run half marathons, do triathlons, or compete in HYROX started here. What you need: running shoes fitted to your stride, a training plan, and the race on your calendar. The registration is what makes the deadline real.
How long to train: 4–8 weeks for most fitness levels.
From 5K to marathon, running races are the most accessible entry point into endurance sport. There's a distance for every fitness level and a community at every start line.
