This race honors the life and achievements of Christopher R. Lopez who passed away September 26, 2009. Chris was a varsity cross-country runner at Yreka High School in Yreka, California.
The race is held in June at Greenhorn Park in Yreka which has miles of dirt trail and one mile of paved path, ranging from flat to very steep.
There are four races offered: 1-mile wlk/run, 5K and 10k trail run.
Chris was a tough runner and this course compliments his diverse running style by encompassing all terrains and offering an, at times, unpredictable running environment. Potential water crossing is likely.
The majority of proceeds earned from the Chris Lopez Classic will be donated to the Chris Lopez Memorial Scholarship Fund which awards two scholarships to worthy cross-country runners from Yreka, Etna, or Mt. Shasta High Schools.
