Series Information<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the last of 5 trail runs in the\u00a012th Annual Be Bold, Run in the Cold \u2013 Winter Trail Series<\/strong>\u00a0presented by Ascent Runs. Every run in the series will have two distances to choose from, a 5Kish and a 10K+. The 5Kish will usually be between 3-4 miles. The 10K+ will be anywhere between 6-9 miles depending on conditions. If it\u2019s nice we make it 7-9 miles. If it\u2019s not so nice we keep it close to 6 miles. These casual runs were created to keep runners and walkers motivated through the winter months and also as a way to supplement your winter training. This series highlights the extensive trail networks surrounding Carson City, NV. Walkers are welcome to any of these events. There are no aid stations out on the courses so be prepared to carry your own water or sports drink. For the safety of all runners and to keep you guessing, event organizers reserve the right to change course routes and distances based on weather conditions or just for the heck of it. This series is a great trainer for the Triple Trail Challenge. The Triple Trail Challenge includes\u00a0Carson Canyons Half Marathon<\/a>,\u00a0Escape From Prison Hill(EFPH) Half Marathon<\/a>, and the\u00a0Silver State Half Marathon<\/a>.<\/p>\n
