Race Distances and Maps:
Kid's Race - 1 km
Kid's Race - 3 km
* Race distances and maps are subject to change based on trail conditions up to the day of the race.
The race starts off with 2 kilometers of hard pack trail with lots of room to spread out before climbing the hill towards Goldstick Park and ducking into the single track. The first aid station is up at the top of a steep climb and is a welcome sight in the summer heat. After the aid station, the course dips back into the single track and flows back to the park before heading out to 50 Street and looping back to the park.
Gold Bar features one of the most challenging 3 KM kids races - a great opportunity for the kids to enjoy the singletrack.
