​

Over the past 8 years, Mountain Magic has become known as a challenging but runnable course through some of the most gorgeous trails on Mt. Spokane. One runner called it "wonderfully varied. Hills, grass, mud, gravel, turns, beauty. It had so much to enjoy."

 

For the longer distances, there are a couple of minor peaks to summit, making them fun but just challenging enough to push you to your limit.

 

But a great trail race is about more than a great runnable course – it’s also about the lively fun party atmosphere before and after. Lunch and Athletic non-al beer are included. One runner said “This race to me is all about what makes the trail running community special. Everybody is so down to earth and friendly. It’s a relaxed, fun and supportive environment.

 

This year we’ve tweaked the 25k course to have less gravel and more trees. This is also the longer loop of the 35k Grand Tour that covers most of the best trails in the ski park.

 

Bottom line, we’re continuing Mountain Magic’s tradition as the trail running party to kick off your summer.

 

Don’t miss the trail race that 2024’s 10k winner Jeremy Brown called “The best course I’ve ever run!"

See you up on the mountain!
