We hope everyone has been having a wonderful winter and holiday season so far and making the most of this mild weather. So whether you’ve been busy training for a big spring race or taking the opportunity to rest and recover from a long year of trail running, we hope you’re getting excited for 2019 and another great year of racing trails on the No Coast!
We can hardly believe that 2019 will mark the 6th year for the series and what an incredible journey it’s been so far! There won’t be any major changes from last year for the series and the 11 race schedule will remain the same. The Driftless Discovery Trail Run will be adding a 25k distance to their event this year which increases the number of options for Trail Division runners looking to run big miles and score big points!
With eleven Iowa trail races on board with over 28 options for distance ranging from 5k to 100mi, there’s something for everyone! All important information on the series including the sign-up link, info on the races, rules and past results can be found at https://nocoasttrailseries.com/ so please take a look and spend a minute browsing around!
