Labor Day weekend is coming up before we know it, so that means it’s Hardesty Hardcore Time! This race, brought to the Pacific NW by Level 32 Racing, is an epic and beautiful trail adventure with two distances to choose from.

The 14 mile “hardcore” distance will start at 8:00AM and end at the Hardesty Trailhead just west of Oakridge, Oregon. This race climbs 3300 feet in the first 4.5 miles and then descends another 3300 feet for another 4 miles. The final 5.5 miles are rollers that begin at the South Creek trailhead and take you back to where it all started. There is a 4 hour time limit on this event.
If you’d prefer the 5.5 mile “forest-fiver” event, you’ll need to take a shuttle from the Hardesty Trailhead to the start, where there will be no parking. This event is “moderately difficult” (in comparison, the 14 miler is “very challenging.”) This event starts at 8:30AM, so don’t be late catching that shuttle which leaves at 8:15AM!!
This race has a participant limit due to parking limitations and to avoid extra congestion on the single-track trails. What this means is .. Register now before it’s too late!!
