  • What

    A throwback to how running used to be and we don’t mean uphill both ways (although the course might feel like that!). This casual race goes back to the roots of trail running: good company, good terrain, and good beer. Make yourself at home at the start/finish basecamp and get ready for the race of your life.

    Grab your friends and take on the 6-lap marathon course or go solo for 26.2, 13.1 or a 4.31 mile Hot Lap! The course features access road, singletrack trails, and a health dose of bushwhacking around Red Lodge Mountain.

    Sure to be your dog’s favorite race of the year!

  • Who

    All ages and abilities are welcome. We say it’s a running race everyone can plan on doing plenty of ‘power hiking.’

    Four-legged training partners are welcome to join on or off leash. Off leash dogs must have good recall and be kept away from the snack table.
