CHINGONAS ON THE RUN: CAMP & LOOP

WHERE MILES, MOUNTAINS, AND MUJERES MEET.

On SUNDAY, JUNE 28, 2026, youll take on a 6-HOUR CHALLENGE to complete as many loops as your legs (and ganas) can handle within the 6-hour timeframe. Each loop is 4.16 MILES with 728 FT OF GAIN, winding through sweet single track trails in the heart of the ANGELES NATIONAL FOREST, summiting MOUNT HILLYER each time you circle.

Note the cut-off to start the last loop is 11:45 AM. Chingonas have the option to set out for one last loop by 11:45 AM or hang out at basecamp to ring their cowbell to welcome the remaining finishers. As a reminder you are encouraged to run at your own pace and ability. We are here to support you on any goal you set for yourself within the 6-hour time frame.
