Midnight Madness - July 6th. Chose from 3 different distances 50, 20, and 10 mile runs With a generous cutoff of 15 hours, this is a great event for both experienced ultra runners and for those looking to complete their 1st 50 miler with great aid stations and plenty of support. This race begins and ends at the 41st st Plaza on Riverside. The out and back course gives you plenty of opportunity to cheer on fellow runners. The 50 mile will consist of 3 out and backs. The 10 mile consist of an out and back, turning around at 5 miles and the 20 mile will do this 2 times. The turnaround point for the 10 and 20 mile distances get to run down a steep 1/4 mile descent and get a little more distance to flatten out before turning around and tackling the 1/4 mile ascent.
Midnight Mayhem Half Marathon July 20th. This race begins and ends at the lower parking lot at the Turkey Mountain Urban Wilderness Area. Hit the Pavement and see the west side trail like you've never seen it before, and as you approach the turnaround point on Route 66, you will be treated to a great view of the city skyline at night. With the upcoming trail construction scheduled, this could be one of your last times to run on this side of the river for a while.
Midnight Mania 5K August 10th. This race also begins and ends at the lower parking lot at the Turkey Mountain Urban Wilderness Area. Start off on a nice long descent down the pavement as you head across the river before turning around and having to climb back up towards the finish. This is not a flat 5k but it is a fun course!
