'16 Race Calendar

2016 New Mexico Trail Running and 
Outdoors Calendar


A new year has arrived. Several **new events** on the schedule, with one or two established races fallen off. Nearly all calendar listings are trail or off-road events. We've added a few other backcountry related events (beer festivals, outdoor film series), and regional classics like the Iron Horse Classic. 

Events are primarily based in New Mexico and southern Colorado, some are regional. A few select events make the list for general awesomeness. If you know of an area trail event we don't have listed, add it in the comments or send an email to  [highdesertdirt_at_gmail.com]

A reminder to support the organizations and event sponsors that bring fun and hi-fives to our weekends. Lot of solid people and fine work being done here.
