Inside Trail - Santa Cruz Trail Run
The Santa Cruz Trail Run, hosted by Inside Trail Racing, takes place at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park in Felton, California. This scenic event features three distances: 10K, Half Marathon (13.5 miles), and 30K (18.2 miles), with challenging elevation gains up to 3,250 feet. Runners traverse twisting single-track trails, dirt fire roads, and a unique sandy ridge, enjoying ocean breezes and giant redwoods.
The 30K and Half Marathon courses include two crossings of the San Lorenzo River. Aid stations stocked with energy gels, snacks, and hydration are spaced every 5-6 miles. The race promotes sustainability as a cupless event, requiring runners to carry their own reusable cups or bottles.
Post-race festivities and family-friendly atmosphere make it a popular trail running experience. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
