'14/'13 Race Calendars

2014/2013 New Mexico Trail Running 
and Outdoors Calendar




Another fine year laid out before us and another go at a slate of fine racing. Nearly all listings are trail or off-road related events. We've added a few other backcountry related events (Beer festivals, Outdoor film series), and regional classics like the Iron Horse Classic. Most are New Mexico and southern Colorado, some are regional. A few select events make the list for their sheer bad-assitude. If you know of an area trail event we don't have listed, add it in the comments or send an email [highdesertdirt_at_gmail.com]

  1. Can I add the Epic Mountain Challenge held in Pagosa Springs, CO 04 Oct - 06 Oct to your calendar?

  2. Anyone seen anything about the Dale Ball Ball Buster this year?

  3. Hi Randi, my delay isn't going to help you much but I'll get it up there later today.

  4. Hi Luke - the Buster is not a 'true' event which is why it's not listed anywhere. The whole idea of the Dale Ball Buster is to have an event without registration, without weeks of planning and volunteer work, no t-shirts or goodie bags, no finishing medals. Just a bunch of runners getting together to replicate an event, pretty awesome. The flip side of this ethos is that there's nothing in place allowing event use of the trails. Slighty less awesome, and this being the reason the SF Striders prefer to solely sponsor the barbeque, the result being little to no publicizing of the run itself other than a few emails among friends.

    All of this being said, a little bird up on Atalaya might have mentioned to me that the tentative date for the Buster (year 4) will be Nov. 3rd.
