2018 Evergreen Trail Racing Series

A challenging 20K race in Staunton State Park is the exciting new addition to the 2018 Evergreen Trail Racing Series, a five-race series of trail running events in parks around the foothills organized by Evergreen Park & Recreation District (EPRD).

Distances range from a short 5k to an epic half-marathon to the top of Bergen Peak (elevation 9,708 feet), a climb of well over 2,000 vertical feet.

All races are cup-free; participants are asked to bring their own bottles.
