Description

Run the Hawk Trail Runs is back for year three of the 3, 6, & 12 Hour Individual and Team Trail Challenge. Join us at the historic Blackhawk Ski Club for some run, fun, dirt & vert!! Conquer the epic Leonard's Way Hill (20%+ grade) then enjoy some live music and post run food. 

 

The Trail Challenge

The goal of the 3, 6 & 12 hour challenge is to complete as many laps around the 2.15 mile course as possible in the designated time. 

 

The team relay for the 3, 6 and 12 hour challenge includes teams of 2-4 people. Set up basecamp and enjoy the day running and bonding with friends. The only rule is every team member gets one chance to run and must complete a minimum of 1 lap. You pick the order, frequency and quantity for each person. 

 

​More detail, including rules and format, on the 3, 6 & 12 hour challenge can be found here.

 

Trail Mix Fun Run

New to trail running or not quite ready for a multi-hour trail run? Then the fun run is for you. The 1.5 mile course hits all the highlights of the ski hill but without the big hill climb. This event is all about getting back to the roots of trail running by being outside with people and playing in the dirt. 

 

Kids 12 and under run for just $5.

 

Support Youth Outdoor Sports

A portion of the proceeds and all donations will go directly to Blackhawk Ski Club, a *501(C)(3), to help their mission of teaching young people life-long competitive and outdoor sports by continuing to expand resources and programs.
