35th Annual Nevada Day Classic
Thirty-five years running (I forgot about Covid in 2020)!! We are excited and thankful, as always, to put on one of our signature races and be part of the Nevada Day weekend!
This is a classic road course through the streets of west Carson City. Costumes are HIGHLY encouraged!
An annual event since 1989, the Nevada Day Classic is an 8K run and a 2-mile run/walk that kicks off Nevada Day and sends runners/walkers through the beautiful, historic West Side of Carson City. All runners of all distances will receive a custom wooden medal! The first 300 runners that register are guaranteed a t-shirt! Race capped at 550.
The Nevada Day Classic is organized by the Tahoe Mountain Milers in partnership with Guide Dog for the Blind, Kaia Fit, Tangerine Design & Web, and Lynn Mentzer Timing. All net proceeds will go to Guide Dogs For The Blind.
