Inside Trail - No Hands Trail Run
The No Hands Trail Run, hosted by Inside Trail Racing, takes place in Auburn, California, on January 10, 2026. This event offers four distances: 8K, Heavy Half Marathon, 35K, and 50K, all starting and finishing at American River Overlook Park. The course features challenging terrain along the historic Western States trail, including the iconic No Hands Bridge, the steep K2 training hill, and the punishing Overlook Hill.
The 50K extends into the Auburn State Recreation Area, providing varied and scenic single-track trails along the American River. The race emphasizes sustainability as a cupless event, requiring runners to carry their own hydration. Aid stations are well-stocked with energy and electrolyte supplies.
The event has a 400-runner capacity, fostering a supportive and spirited trail running atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
