Wild Wild West Marathon & Ultra
About the race
The third oldest trail marathon in the United States, the legendary Wild Wild West Marathon and Ultra, has been hosted by the Lone Pine Chamber of Commerce for 46 years.
The race runs through the Alabama Hills and the foothills of Mt. Whitney. Ten water stops or aid stations are positioned along one of America's most scenic trail races.
This is the race for you if you want clean air, safe surroundings, and spectacular scenery, if you and your family would like to enjoy a day of running, or if you want a challenging race.
Our team of volunteers from the Lone Pine Community, along with Lone Pine Chamber of Commerce staff and board members, will be out in force to support the runners.
