Santa Clarita Trail Race

Event overview

Santa Clarita Trail Race is scheduled for 2027-05-01 at 16723 Placerita Canyon Rd in Santa Clarita, California. The current event record lists 5K, 10K, 15K, 30K, 60K, 6-Hours, and 12-Hours, with trail and hilly terrain terrain. Treat the date, venue, course, and distance menu as organizer-controlled details: weather, permits, land access, or field size can change them. Use this page to understand the stored event structure, then use the official race site for the current runner guide, start times, required equipment, and final instructions.

Choosing a distance and preparing

Compare the distance label with the organizer's actual course map, climbing, surface, altitude, aid spacing, and cutoff before deciding whether the event fits your preparation. A familiar road distance can take substantially longer on steep or technical trail. Build training around time on feet, climbing and descending tolerance, fueling practice, and movement in conditions similar to the course. In race week, reduce experimentation: use familiar shoes, clothing, hydration, lighting, and food unless the organizer requires a change.

Registration and race-day logistics

Registration is currently recorded as open. The stored registration window runs from 2026-06-15 through 2027-04-28.Confirm entry status directly with the organizer before booking non-refundable travel. Check packet pickup, parking or shuttle instructions, start-line access, bib rules, cancellation and transfer policies, and the time zone used for every deadline. Plan arrival around the organizer's instructions rather than the venue name alone, especially when a trail system has several entrances.

Support, rules, and verification

The stored organizer information includes aid-station plan. The current source did not state cutoff, crew, pacers, drop bags, lottery, and qualification. Do not interpret an unstated field as permission. Crew, pacer, drop-bag, trekking-pole, headphone, and mandatory-gear rules can vary by distance and checkpoint. Reopen the official runner guide shortly before race day and save an offline copy if the organizer provides one.

• Verify the final start time, location, course, cutoff, and required gear.
• Match travel, parking, crew, and drop-bag plans to the official instructions.
• Carry the organizer's emergency contact and withdrawal procedure.
