Description:
Whiteface sits on more true vertical gain than all but 14 other ski resorts in North America and more than any resort east of the Rockies. From its sharp and exposed form to an entrance lined with the rings and flags of the world telling of its place in past and current Olympic activity, Whiteface is iconic. Whether you’re keen on throwing down w/ some of the best mountain runners in the world, or whether you’re just up for a beautiful weekend in the ADK’s, the resort and the town of Wilmington will provide the pitch perfect venue for an amazing weekend of hard efforts, awesome experiences, and the wonderful community which defines the best of trail running. Red Newt Racing, Whiteface Mountain, and the town of Wilmington are stoked to have you.
2022 will provide a 1 lollipop loop circuit Mountain Race course offering 4,000’ gain (and loss) in 7 miles, a Vertical K (race from the bottom to the top) as well as kid’s / family 1’ish mile SkyClimber event in the afternoon. Be sure to take a moment to stop, look up toward some of the best mountain runners in the world shuffling forward to the finish, back toward fellow entrants of all ages, shapes, and sizes moving toward the summit, and around at the brilliant Adirondack Peaks enveloping you. You don’t get any of those sites often…soak it up. Weather & COVID permitting we’ll have post-race festivities with food on Saturday evening, and the opportunity on Sunday to meet as small groups outside of the event to explore other area trails and/or Peaks.
