Mid-August keeps the momentum going with another well-rounded lineup of races across the region.
Midweek trail and cross-country series continue to provide a fun way to stay sharp, while the weekend features everything from community 5Ks to rugged mountain adventures and unique endurance formats.
As with any August race weekend, be sure to check race websites and social media before traveling. Wildfire activity and air quality can change quickly, and race directors may adjust courses, schedules, or event formats to keep participants safe.
