This annual trail running classic covers many scenic segments of the Ridgeline Trail in South Eugene. We're hoping to return to the original staging areas for 2021. Stand by. Course map to be uploaded when confirmed.
2021 Courses: TBD - If permitted, we'll return to our original courses from Blanton Trailhead for the 20K and from the Fox Hollow Trailhead for the 10K.
There is plenty of parking available at LCC, the common finish line. All participants are strongly encouraged to be dropped off at their start line. Staggered starts will occur shortly after you arrive. Shuttles will begin leaving LCC at 7:15AM. FACE MASKS REQUIRED on the shuttle. Portable toilet access available at each trailhead.
Again - please do not plan on parking at the start of your event - there is no parking available, nor will there be any shuttles running after your race has started to take you back after you finish.
Participants will be allowed to drop their clothing bags in a van at the start line. Please make sure names and bib numbers are clearly displayed on clothing bags - we are not responsible for lost items. The van will load participant gear bags at the start, then drive them to the finish line continuously, as the shuttle will be making multiple trips. Extra clothing bags will be available at the packet pickup staging area.
Water, electrolyte beverage and light snacks will be available at the following mile marks for both distances: 1.8m, 3.9m, 5.5m, 8m.
Road Crossings: Most aid stations are at sections of the course where the trail either crosses a road or turns to follow a road for a short distance - please use caution on all surfaces, being aware of traffic. 20K runners must run against traffic for a short section down Dillard Road prior to turning left, back onto the Ridgeline Trail connector across the street from the Mt. Baldy Kiosk.
Adults 18-59 = $35 for 20K & 10K. Youth 17 & under and Adults 60+, deduct $5. There is NO RACE DAY registration. Tech shirts can be purchased for an additional $14. Entry fees are non-transferable and non-refundable.
Entry Limit: This event has an entry limit, based on shuttle and trail capacity and entries received within a time frame conducive to scheduling.
