SFRC / Marin Headlands Training Run
For the fourth year running, we’ve joined forces with San Francisco Running Company for an unforgettable day on the world-class trails of the Marin Headlands. Please consider joining us on Saturday, April 20th at 8am for an inclusive, welcoming and fun day on some ridiculously beautiful trails. After two wildly successful Mt. Diablo runs earlier this year, we’re excited to close out our spring training calendar with the fine folks at SFRC.
This is a free event but we do ask that you register on Ultrasignup so that we can forecast food and drink needs.
At the Broken Arrow Skyrace, whether you finish first or last, YOU are a rockstar. Well, our training runs are no different! Broken Arrow Advisory Council member and Bay Area trail icon David Lam has created FOUR distinct courses for your enjoyment. Whether you are just getting into the sport, or need those big training miles, we’ve got you covered.
The short course is 8.5-miles long with 1,200 feet of climbing. For shorter options, you can always run this course as an out-and-back, and turn around when you are ready, forgoing the total mileage.
Participants will enjoy a pre-run raffle, with over $1,500 of product giveaways, and the real party starts at the finish line. Our race crew will be waiting for you with a FREE post-run feed, including grilled goodness for all dietary types, adult beverages from Sierra Nevada, non-alcoholic brew from Best Day, and all kinds of other tasty calories. SFRC has been building community in the Bay Area for many years and we’re excited to catch up with old and new friends on April 20th.
Salomon will once again join us with trail shoe demos, including the brand new Genesis, Thundercross and Ultra Glide 2. Hydrapak, Sidas, Spring Energy and more will also be in attendance with freebies and demos.
Course specifics are most readily available on our Broken Arrow Strava club page as well as our Capra mobile app, which is best accessed from our website. We STRONGLY encourage you to DOWNLOAD your chosen course ahead of time. As this is held in conjunction with SFRC’s traditional Saturday am runs, courses will not be marked and there will be no aid stations. Please come prepared.
Our training runs draw over 350 participants. As such, we need everyone’s help to manage the parking in and around SFRC. Please consider carpooling or taking public transit. Parking specifics can be found on SFRC’s website here: https://www.sfrunco.com/about-us/parking/
SFRC is offering all training run participants 10% off any in-store items (minor exceptions apply) and all participants will receive a post-event discount code for Salomon, LEKI, Hydrapak, Garmin and Sidas to redeem online at Brendan’s shop Alpenglow Sports.
We’re excited to see everyone in just a few weeks!
Event's current local time: 5:45 AM PT
