Race Information
The Marin Ultra Challenge, a premier Marin County long distance trail race, delivers ample hills and sweeping descents. Participants choose from 25k, 50k and 50-mile races distances. All three distances are physically demanding (the 50 Mile has just about 11,000 feet of elevation gain) and exceptionally beautiful.
