Race #1

Sunday, September 30th - 11:30am. Take I-25 to Uintah St. exit 143. Turn left (east) and go 3 blocks to Cascade Avenue. Turn left (north), go about 7 blocks to Fontanero and turn left (west). Go to the end of the road and you will be at the park. Find a place to park. Registration is in the park down the hill to your left across from the baseball field.

Course #1

COURSE: (~3.5 miles) The start is on the large grass area then on trails. The course will cut to side trails. You will end up running up the creek, and then turn on to the grass again to the finish line

Race #2

Sunday, October 14th - 11:30am. Take Highway 24 to South 21st St. Turn left (south). Go to Argus Boulevard. Turn right (west - toward the mountains). You will see a playground. That’s where the race starts – in the big green field.

Course #2

Course: (~4.5 miles) We will use the trails that are wide, 8’ in places. There are a lot of ups and downs and the creek may be used as well – don’t get your hopes up for an easy run here.

Race #3

Sunday October 28th - 11:30am. Take I-25 to Woodmen Road Exit 149. Go west until the intersection of Rockrimmon Boulevard and proceed west to Vindicator Drive. Turn right (west) - past Safeway to Eagleview Middle School. Use the western most parking lots. The race starts on the track.

Course #3

Course: (~5.5 miles) This park is very rocky and hilly, so be ready for the run of your life! The trails are single track in places. If there is water, it will be found and there is always the possibility of snakes. We have had broken bones in this race before. This is by far the most challenging run of the series

Race #4

Sunday, November 11th - 11:30am. Use the southern entrance into Palmer Park, which is located on Maizeland between Academy Boulevard and Circle Drive. The start is located at the big tree on the southwest corner of the parking lot north - of the sandpit.

Course #4

COURSE: (~7 miles) In this race, you will run miles on trails that no man or woman would touch – except for the Fall Series runners! Rocks that move, ankles that hurt…but its fun! Let’s see who shows the most blood
