Run the iconic beauty of Yosemite National Park and absorb the beauty of the valley from new heights. Together, we'll explore some of the less traveled trails while always pausing for a photo op of each newly unveiled waterfall and vista.
The guided run on Saturday will cover approximately 13 miles and climb over 4,000 feet. Most of the run will be on trails. Conditions and trail crowds may vary according to the weather and tourist numbers. Some portions of the run will slow to a walk depending on the trail grade. There will be plenty of opportunities to pause and enjoy the natural beauty, and catch your breath, hydrate, and re-fuel.
While there's no required fitness level, the ability to comfortably run 5 miles at a sustained 9 minute mile pace is recommended. Training plans are available upon request. I want you to enjoy your trip and be able to take in all of the views!
For the guided run on Saturday, it is recommended you bring a camelbak or comfortable running backpack with sufficient water and snacks to pull you through the run. Additional recommendations will be sent once you've reserved your spot.
