Kids Race
Each course winds through open grasslands, towering ponderosa pine and groves of Douglas-fir, with breathtaking lake views. You'll tackle steady climbs, rolling sections, and a mix of technical and flowy singletrack that keeps things fun from start to finish.
Kids race
When registering for the 2.5ish km Sneaky Creeky children's race, you can expect a fun and challenging experience for your child. The course consists of 2 loops, each with a spicy climb, designed to give your child a taste of the trail running experience.
The race is timed, but the emphasis is on participation and enjoyment rather than competition. Every child who completes the race receives a medallion and a goodie bag. The race takes place at the start/finish line like our big kids race and is open to children of all ability levels.
It is a fantastic opportunity for kids to challenge themselves, have fun, and meet other young trail runners.
