VIRTUAL & VIRUS FREE!
Despite Self-Quarantining and Social Distancing, we have created a way to still encourage you to get out on the trails for some sanity-saving pandemic recovery, all while supporting Mountain Trails this summer with Virtual Running! You can run, job or walk anytime! Everyone of any ability level is welcome!
RACE DESCRIPTION:
The Round Valley Rambler offers two distances, 7K or a trail half marathon. The half marathon distance is the first race in the Triple Trail Challenge. 100% of the course takes place on buff single and double track trails within the 2,100 acre, Round Valley Open Space, with altitude ranging from 6,500 to 7,100 feet. While athletes will find the trails foot-friendly, the rolling, high-desert terrain presents a few long and steady climbs followed by fast downhills. With the new Virtual format, all abilities are welcome, you can run, jog or walk anytime throughout the month of June.
The Round Valley Rambler is a stout trail half and serves as a reality check for athletes preparing for the Triple Trail Challenge sister races, the Jupiter Peak Steeplechase and the Mid Mountain Marathon.
HOW VIRTUAL WORKS:
- Simply register for your preferred distance: 7K or Half Marathon.
- Once we have confirmed your registration, we will send you; your race bib and finishers medal (to address noted during registration).
- You have the entire month of June to run the course (or equal distance/elevation at a location of their choice).
- Once you have run the course, email your name, bib # and finish time to: ginger@mountaintrails.org. Results will be posted online July 2, 2020
- Since we can't cheer you across the finish line, let us celebrate your accomplishment on social media! Take a picture of yourself with your bib and finishers medal and post it to Facebook and Instagram with your time and hashtag: #roundvalleyrambler; #virtural&virusfree
*Please note: ONLY the Half distance is eligible as part of the Triple Trail Challenge.
