Spring 2024 Trail 5k and 10K

This year we are going also offer a 5k team to the mix!  This is a unique training program specifically designed for new and experienced trail runners; people who do not shy away from a rocky ravine, who do not mind splashing through a creek, and who look forward to spectacular views you only find on trails around the area.  We will be sharing new content and taking the team on fun and challenging trails around our beautiful local trails!  This 8-week program will target Paiute Meadows trail race on May 11th, 2024, HOME (paiutemeadowstrailrun.com). You will begin at about 1.5-3 miles and will be building to 4-7 miles!
