Are you a friend of Bays Mountain? Then join us for these trail races with proceeds going to the Bays Mountain Park Association. Check back for preregistration information! Choose from either the 10 Mile or 5k options. The 5k option is great for even the beginner. Mostly single track trails. There are not many 5k easy trail runs around, so come out and try this one and help support the mountain that makes these possible. The 10 mile option is challenging and exciting. Flats, climbs, drops, and recovery are all part of this course. Both are great XTERRA races presented by Fleet Feet Sports, so come out and show your support for Bays Mountain.
