Turquoise Trail Ultra

The Turquoise Trail Ultra is a trail running event taking place in Cedar Crest, New Mexico, featuring three race distances: 52K, 26K, and 13K. The course consists of a 13K loop around the scenic Gutierrez Canyon Open Space, with over 1,000 feet of elevation gain per lap. Participants can expect a variety of terrain, including smooth single track and rock gardens.

The event emphasizes sustainability by being cup-less, encouraging runners to bring their own hydration containers. Aid stations will provide refreshments, and locally made burritos will be available at the finish. Registration closes a week before the event.
