The Endurance Challenge
The goal of the 3, 6 and 12 hour challenge (individual and team relay) is to complete as many laps around the ~2 mile course as possible in the designated time. We have a variety of features along the course, including a ski hill w/ a 20% grade, majestic 70 foot pines, and a nice flat creek side path with amazing views. We would be amiss if we didnt mention you will run along some of the nicest bike trails in the area and under the iconic 60 meter ski jump. There is also a natural spring pool with a rope swing at the bottom of the switchbacks that you can jump in if you need to cool off.
Team relay options are also available for the 3, 6 and 12 hour challenges with teams of 2-4 people. Set up basecamp and enjoy the day running and bonding with friends. The only rule is every participant needs to complete at least 1 lap. You pick the order, number of people and rotation.

Trail Mix Fun Run
New to trail running or not quite ready for a multi-hour trail run? Then The Trail Mix Fun Run is for you. The 1.75 mile course hits all the highlights of the ski hill but with only one of the hill climbs. Enjoy 1 lap or 5, its up to you. This event is all about getting back to the roots of trail running and just being with people and playing in the dirt. The course for the fun run will be open for 1 hour.
Kids 12 and under run for $5.
