Hatcher Pass Races

The Hatcher Pass Races, held in the scenic Matanuska-Susitna valley, feature challenging courses for runners of all levels, including a 50-mile race, a marathon, and a relay event. The marathon course includes significant elevation gain, with the first 25 miles primarily uphill, culminating in a downhill finish. The 50-mile race starts with a steep climb before descending to the marathon start and then retracing the marathon route.

Participants can expect well-stocked aid stations and must adhere to specific gear requirements. The event promotes a vibrant running community and showcases the stunning landscapes of Hatcher Pass. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
