The Dunsmuir Railroad Days River Run includes 2 and 5 mile races. Both courses begin in the historic railroad town of Dunsmuir and follow scenic routes along the Sacramento River with occasional views of Mount Shasta and Castle Crags. Runners will encounter short hills on both courses.
Both races start at 8:00, June 11th on Dunsmuir Ave at Castle St. in Dunsmuir.
Special trophies with a railroad theme will be awarded to the top male and female runner in each race. Unique custom ribbons will be presented to the top three male and female finishers in each 10-year age division.
The 2-mile race is especially popular for families and a great opportunity to start young runners.
