Race Information
The Pigtails Challenge takes place at Lake Youngs Watershed, which is a rolling loop with 900 feet of elevation gain per loop. While this is not considered a technical mountain race, don’t be fooled. 900ft per loop adds up considerably (for example, 100 milers do 10 loops x 900ft = 9,000ft vertical). This is an excellent course for those wishing to train in a very well-supported race.
