Overview

The XTERRA Trail Run National Championship will return to the beautiful Snowbasin Resort near Ogden, Utah, in 2020. This year’s event will once again attract some of the best trail runners from across the country.

The XTERRA Trail Run Nationals was staged at Snowbasin Resort for the first time in 2011, and it received rave reviews from the runners.

Runners of all ages and skill levels can participate in the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship, as there is no qualifying process. Last year, close to 500 trail runners from 30 different states gathered at Snowbasin Resort for the event.

There will be three different courses to accommodate the various levels of runners. A 21-kilometer half-marathon course will serve as the national championship course, but there will also be a 10K and a 5.8K.

Every age-group winner from the 21K course will be awarded a free entry to race at the 2020 XTERRA Trail Run World Championship at Kualoa Ranch, Oahu, Hawaii.

The top five overall males and top five overall females from the 21K course will also receive prize money. Medals and other prizes will also be awarded to the top age-group runners from all three courses.

The XTERRA Trail Run Nationals will be held one day after the XTERRA USA Championship off-road triathlon to create the ultimate XTERRA racing weekend. The two events will bring more than 1,000 of the nation’s very best amateur and professional triathletes and trail runners to Northern Utah to battle for the title of XTERRA National Champion.

Events

XTERRA UTAH 5.8/10/21KM TRAIL RUNS

XTERRA has a race with the perfect distance for the entire family. In addition to the National Championship 21km course there will be 10km and 5.8km trail races.

NEW 5X5 TEAM RELAY

New for 2020 is a 5x5 team relay. One team member completes one 5km lap and hands off to a different team member for the 2nd 5km lap, and so on. Five total laps must be completed with a hand-off between team members on each lap.  The same team member may not run consecutive laps. Teams are comprised of 3-5 people.

How it works:

  • Distance:  Five laps of 5km (25km total)
  • Cut-off:  4 hours to complete 5 laps.
  • Team Village:  Teams are welcome to setup a 10x10 shade tent in the XTERRA 5x5 Team Village area - your HQ for resting between laps, cheering, and celebrating after the race is over.
  • Awards:  Top 3 in each division.
  • Divisions:  Coed, All Male, All Female, Military, Corporate, Student, Family.
  • Minimum age:  8 years – young runners may be accompanied on course.

PAUL MITCHELL CUT-A-THON

The best Paul Mitchell stylists in Utah will be onsite giving professional hair cuts in exchange for a $15 (or more) donation to the Challenged Athletes Foundation.  100% of the proceeds benefit CAF.

XTERRA UNIVERSITY

If you want to learn more about the XTERRA Trail Run National Championship, the course at Snowbasin Resort, or anything about trail running in general, the XTERRA University Presented by Paul Mitchell will be the place to be on Saturday.

Cancellation and Refunds

Refunds will be given if the event must be cancelled due to travel restrictions from the COVID-19.  Active registration fees are non-refundable.

The course is a true championship masterpiece.  There is nothing amiss in this perfectly designed thriller, highlighting everything Snowbasin Resort’s terrain has to offer.  If you enjoy gut-wrenching climbs leading to breathtaking views, twisted single track dotted with rock gardens, fast flat sections, and of course, flying effortlessly down rewarding descents, you are in for the race of your life! It hosts the perfect symphony of challenging components to favor the all-around runner.  For those curious about the elevation, the low point hits in at 6,133 feet. High point is just shy of 7,300 feet.  Expect 2,200 feet of climbing.
