7th Golden
Gate Canyon Trail 1/2-Marathon |
12.7mi
|
One
of
the
best
trails
in
the
state, this
course will stimulate your body and your senses. A challenging 12.7mi,
with 2,500' of climbing, between 8,400'
- 9,500', on everything from steep and
rocky, to smooth and fast. Run through alpine meadows, and golden aspen
and pine forests, with gorgeous views of the
continental divide. |

Bear Creek
10-Spot |
10.5mi

Just becaue it's almost winter,
doesn't mean there aren't great trails to race on. Two loops,
mostly on single and double track, with a series of short (30 sec -
3 min), sometimes steep, climbs and descents, and maybe a water
crossing or two.

I'm always interested in more race volunteers. If you
can't race, come out and help and enjoy the scenery. Volunteer time
should count for those of you needing certain hours to qualify for some
ultras. Also, if you know of any youth (or other local community
groups) that would like to make some money, I will make a donation in
exchange for help at the races. Contact Adam
for more info.

Course
Measurement and Markings: All courses will be accurately
measured using the same USATF method
used to certify road courses (where possible). This is more accurate
than
GPS, MapMyRun, GoogleEarth, or other similar mapping programs. There
will be accurate mile markers.
All courses will be
extremely well marked. You will not get lost - guaranteed (entry
fee
will
be
refunded
not including online fees).
Rules:
- No littering. Drop cups, gel/bar wrappers at or near
aid staions, or carry them to the finish.
- Headphones: Stongly discouraged. Enjoy the sounds of
nature. If you insist on wearing headphones, you must leave one ear
free, and you must keep the music low - low enough to be able to hear
directions from course officials talking in a normal voice, and to be
able to hear other runners around you.
- No pacers by bike or non-registered runners.
- No pets.
