  • The dates for the 2012 Summer Trail Run Series are now posted.
  • BAZ the RD welcomes you to the 2012 Summer Trail Run Series in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. Over the last 26 years of organizing trail races in Southern Cal, I feel it is time for runners in the Central Valley area to enjoy a new running adventure! Many ultra runners know of my long-standing Shadow of the Giants 50K in Fish Camp, but maybe not know of the many other miles of mountain trails in the Sierras, just north of Oakhurst. The trails will be well marked and aid stations will provide all your fluid needs as required. Of course we do suggest you carry water at all times.
  • The three race series will start June 23, 2012 and conclude July 21, 2012. All race courses in the are in Sierra National Forest, near Oakhurst or Fish Camp, California. Distances are between 8 and 10.5 miles, at between 4,000 and 5,500' elevation. The weather is usually clear blue sky and temperatures around 60 to 70 degrees for the 8:00 AM start times. The races will go on, so come prepared for all seasons.
     
  • Soft drinks and seasonal fruit will be available to runners at the finish line. Awards will be given to men and women winners plus special age groups.
     
  • Please note, you will receive only one series T-shirt, even if you enter all races, but for those entering and FINISHING all three races you will receive a special Series Sweat-Shirt. Other give-away items will be offered in the form of a Raffle… just fun if you stick around. A King and Queen of the Mountain Awards will be given at the final race in Fish Camp. It could be, You!
     
  • More race information will be including entry forms and course maps will be available on-line. TRAILS ROCK merchandise will be available, 10% of the profits will be donated to a local school in the form of sporting goods for those kids who are really in need. Kids under 12 wanting to run will require permission from their parent, we want these events to be a family affair.
