XTERRA Oak Mountain

Join us and be part of “the greatest race on dirt” - a fantastic international event weekend with some of the best athletes from all over the world swimming, riding, and running right in Pelham, Alabama. We are looking for groups or individuals to serve as course marshals and sweeps, help with timing, and hand out recovery at aid stations.

Volunteers will get a great-looking event t-shirt, lunch, and the undying gratitude of the XTERRA family.

Email the XTERRA Volunteer Coordinator at volunteer@xterraplanet.com to help out or if you have any questions. It's a fun day on the trails, so we hope to see you there!

What can I do in the area?

DISCOVER SHELBY

There is so much to discover right around Oak Mountain State Park! Be sure to check out the new Oak Mountain Brewing Company and The Beer Hog to sample some amazing local craft brews. Don’t miss out on The Margarita Grill…an XTERRA crew favorite!

Want to ride or run some wicked, but fairly untapped trails? Cahaba River Park is for you! Timing should be perfect at the beginning of May to sneak a glimpse of the iconic Cahaba lilies in bloom. These aquatic flowering plants only grown in Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina…and only bloom for one month out of the year…MAY!
