Ady Hikes Oak Mountain is a running race on October 24, 2026 in Birmingham, AL, with entry fees from $45 to $50.
Ady Hikes launches its inaugural community event at Oak Mountain State Park! This event offers multi-distance routes (10K, 5K, and a fully accessible 1-mile trail), bringing together runners, hikers, and walkers advocating for a shared purpose: to change how the world views people with disabilities and to create a joyful culture of inclusion on the trails.
Your support does more than underwrite an event. It fuels a movement that began on the Appalachian Trail, is being captured in a short film, and is building toward a permanent place of belonging through Ady’s BiG Army — a Christ-centered community where educational programming, vocational training, and ministry opportunities create a culture of service, honor and dignity for its Citizens.
