Race Preview: 2018 Sunset Bay Trail Runs (Coos Bay)

In a world full of expensive road races, choose a trail run at a shockingly great price! If you are at the Southern Coast on September 1st or looking for a good excuse to head that way, I suggest you check out the Sunset Bay Trail Runs. This event offers four different race distances, a one mile beach fun run, a four mile trail run, a 15K trail run, and a half marathon trail run.

From the sounds of it, this event has the most amazing views! It promises to be challenging for the longer distances with lots of steep climbs, forest trails and a flat section along a cliff top. This cliff top offers views of the ocean and sea lions and even perhaps a whale!

All of the race distances are only $10 ($8 for SCRC Members) and all the proceeds go to benefit the Pregnancy Resource Center in Coos Bay. That is a heck of a deal. Because of the extremely affordable price, a shirt is not included but can be purchased for an extra $15.

Ribbons will be given to the top three female and male winners.
