The Stevens Creek Striders have been running and volunteering at the Reservoir for more than 40 years, and they are thrilled to be able to share these trails with you for Half Marathon, 10K, and Lollipop (2.4 mi) race distances. You will run or walk through their favourite trails, from the cool shaded single track of Tony Look to the open vistas of Coyote Ridge.
The Striders Reservoir Run is a wonderful introduction to trail running for road runners, yet it promises to be challenging enough for the most experienced trail and ultra runners. Please note that the half marathon has several steep ascents – it’s a tough and rewarding course, and there are aid stations every few miles to help you on your way
This race is hand-timed, using Ultrasignup timing software. It is capped at 150 runners across the Half Marathon and 10K. Participants in the Lollipop Loop charity run/walk and children’s race (2.4 mi) will register on the day of the event.
Here at Trees with Tees we partner with races to improve climate by planting and nurturing trees, at a cost of $7 per tree. You’ll have the option to donate at check-out or at the race. Additionally, all proceeds from the Lollipop Loop will be donated.
After the race, you’ll receive a certificate with your tree photo, species, and what3words geolocation. Currently, all trees are being planted in the UK. Starting next year, trees will also be planted in the US.
