A sincere thank you goes out to all the runners and volunteers for a great day at Redwood today. The morning monsoon and ice rink-like trails didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits!
We are truly blessed to have such amazing supporters.


Race Information


The event gets underway at the Canyon Meadow staging area. Towering redwoods silently spectate as runners enjoy the shade they provide along the undulating course. The redwoods share the park with the organic curves of tall eucalyptus, blending to create a true trail running experience where you may leave behind the stresses of the daily grind and enjoy the mix of solitude and camaraderie with like-minded runners. The event will leave you with a new appreciation for the gems offered in the East Bay Parks.

Parking is $5 at Canyon Meadow.
