WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE VERDUGO MOUNTAINS 10K:

 “Your race was excellent!  There was a buzz around the finish line that I have not seen in quite a while.  A lot of long time local runners were making immediate comparisons to the Mt Wilson Trail Race and  Baldy Run to the Top, which are very long time and established cult races, as you surely know...  so I am thinking that you have created an instant classic with a modern feel to it! “

Bruce Bornhurst ~ La Canada, CA

 “I just wanted to say thank you to all the people that put on such a great race...  I can’t wait ‘til next year!” 

 Lili Hernandez ~ 1st Place Overall Female
