This November 2nd, 2024 13.1 extreme Eco-Trail run on Santa Cruz Island is a Wilderness run from sea level @ Santa Cruz Island's Prisoners Cove, up through the island highlands, peaks, valleys, and mountains, then Shamrock style looping back to Prisoner's Cove.
This run course offers the best of the National Park.
The number of entries is regulated by the National Park Service Those who have run before describe the run as the most unique wilderness run in the Pacific.
Our private Island Packers boat ride out and back is a blast, we see so many whales and dolphins.
This run is not suitable for trail walkers or first-time runners. It is a challenging extreme run in a wilderness setting. There are areas of steep single track that have to be walked even by the best.
We have a great complimentary after-party lunch on the island.
Past runners overwhelming tell us this is the most remote and scenic run available on the West Coast of the USA.
This is a full non-profit event and your entry helps our Sheriff's Volunteer Search and Rescue Unit while promoting the outdoors, community health, and fitness.
