About the Woodside Ramble

The course runs through two county parks, moving from stream-cut canyons under a canopy of old redwoods up into mixed evergreen forest and out onto a drier ridgeline covered in manzanita and chaparral. The climbing is real, and the single-track gets narrow and twisting near the top. Deer and coyotes are common enough that spotting one mid-run barely breaks your stride.

Bib pickup runs race morning before the first wave goes off, so there is no need to come out the day before. Dogs are not allowed in either park, so leave them home.

Common Questions About the Woodside Ramble

Will I finish last at the Woodside Ramble?

Almost certainly not. Half the 13.3 Miles field finished slower than 2:40:57, and the last recorded finisher came in around 4:39:03, so there is a long tail of runners behind the middle of the pack. Most fields are far slower than people expect.

Is the Woodside Ramble a good first 13.3 Miles?

It is a small race (138 finishers), which is friendlier and less intimidating than a big-city event, though the field thins out. There is no qualifying time, and the finish-time spread above shows how varied the field really is. If it is your first 13.3 Miles, that spread matters more than the winner's time.

How competitive is the Woodside Ramble?

The 13.3 Miles winner ran 1:43:09 while the median finisher took 2:40:57. That spread points to a mixed field, with a competitive front and a big recreational middle.
