Fall Mid-Morning Trails Group Run @ Locations Vary, See Details

Tickets

Oct 26 @ 9:00 am – 10:30 am

Join Meggie for a 6-week series of fall trail runs on Tuesday mornings at 9:00am starting on October 5th. This is a “no-host unofficial” social run. Well-behaved dogs are welcome. Mileage and exact route will be determined by the group that morning.

Johnson Canyon 10/5 and 10/12
Coldstream Canyon 10/19 and 10/26
Donner Camp Picnic Site 11/2 and 11/9

In order to make these runs fun and safe for everyone, all participants need to follow current state and county guidelines. In particular, these runs are limited to current DPMR members (to ensure a “stable cohort”). Bring a face covering for the trailhead before and after the run. 6-feet of physical separation will be necessary during the run. If guidelines change in the future, we may be able to invite non-members.

Halloween Hill Climb

Tickets

Oct 31 all-day

As if October 31st isn’t spooky enough… we’ve added a virtual hill-climbing event to challenge your day. It’s all about the vert so head to your local hill and get your monster climb on!

Here’s how it works:
• This is a virtual event- you can get your climb on anywhere you want. Hill repeats, one epic climb or in the stairwell of your apartment… we won’t judge (except your final total).
• You have 12 hours to complete the challenge- take as little or as much time as you want. In the end it’s only vertical feet of climbing that count towards your total.
• Proof of your effort requires a photo of your watch showing your final vert or a link to your adventure on Strava or other tracking program. We’re on the honor system…but please email your final tally to diane@donnerpartymountainrunners.com. Give a shout out on social media too: #DPMRHalloweenHillClimb.
• Overall men’s and women’s winner (DPMR members only) will receive a BigTruck 2021 Donner Party Mountain Runners trucker hat for the extreme effort!
• It’s Halloween so of course costumes are encouraged! Need a reason to buy that 8-lb bag of candy? Well you need to stock your own Aid Station too!
• This event is FREE for DPMR members but we want your efforts to count so sign up today.
