From the Organizer
We are excited to bring back an oldie but goodie the infamous Pill Hill 10k Run. This Huntsville classic race hasn't been run since 2003 and we couldn't be happier to bring back such an iconic race. The Pill Hill 10K is one of the most beautiful and challenging road races in the Southeast. The race is run in the Greenwyche pool neighborhood utilizing all of the great hills around the Drake and Garth Road intersection. The race will be a fundraiser for the Huntsville Police Department with 100% of the proceeds going to the HPD Citizens Foundation Fund. The Citizens Foundation Fund was created to support fallen Officer’s families, Officer’s in need of Medical or Mental Health issues and the HPD Memorial. Our goal is to raise community awareness of the issues Officers face on a daily basis during their line of duty and in particular the impact on their Mental Health.
