Church Rock, NM
The course runs through Red Rock State Park, where sandstone cliffs rise on either side and the desert opens up around you. It is trail running in high desert country, which means uneven ground, dust, and views that go a long way out. The race benefits a local nonprofit that supports elderly residents, so the cause is right there alongside the scenery.
