How fast is it?

Faster than most US trail 50-mile races

The fastest quarter of the 2026 50-mile race field finished under 10:06:17, against 10:47:13 in a typical US trail 50-mile race, so times here run 6 percent faster.

  • Marathon: Faster than most California trail marathons. The fastest quarter of the 2026 marathon field finished under 4:35:32, against 4:46:12 in a typical California trail marathon, so times here run 4 percent faster.
  • Half Marathon: About average for California trail half marathons. The fastest quarter of the 2026 half marathon field finished under 2:24:26, against 2:21:30 in a typical California trail half marathon, so times here are about average.

Compares the fastest quarter of each field, so walkers and first-timers do not skew it. It reflects the course and the field together: a flat course, cool weather, or a competitive crowd all make times faster.
