17th Annual Taos Ski Valley Up & Over 10k Trail Run
Saturday & Sunday, August 5-6, 2023
Spanning the first weekend of August, the Up & Over weekend challenges runners with a demanding 10K Trail Run course on Saturday, August 5th. On Sunday runners can take on a new event, the VerticAL’s VertK, sure to become a classic.
Saturday’s Up & Over 10K is notoriously challenging with many runners returning year-after-year to beat their PBs. There are many groups that run together; friends, co-workers, and whole families who want to take on the mountain. The course is a formidable and scenic 2,612’ climb from 9,321′ at the base, topping out at 11,819′. Expect amazing views of Kachina and Wheeler Peaks, followed by a technical descent through high alpine terrain.
This year, we’re excited to announce The Up & Over 10k Trail Run will serve as the USATF New Mexico 10k Trail Running State Championship for mountain running! USATF members can enter the competition in 7 different age groups for men and women, and awards will be given to the top 3 finishers in each age group.
