Join us on July 10, 2010 high above the Rogue Valley for the 12th annual Siskiyou Out Back Trail Run (SOB)! Choose either our 50K or 15K distance. Register early as we expect the events to fill quickly again this year. We limit our registration to the first 225 in each event.

Our two runs begin and end at the Mt. Ashland Lodge at an altitude of 6,500 feet. From there, the courses meander along the Pacific Crest Trail with breathtaking views of Mt. Shasta, Mt. McLaughlin and the Siskiyou and Cascade mountain ranges. The total course elevation gain for the 50K is approximately 4,200 feet.

We have low base rates for each race. The 50K registration is $44; the 15K cost is $14. This fee includes cowbells to the first three finishers of each age group (for both races!), finisher medallions, rockin’ finisher SWAG, to say nothing of what you'll find on the course itself: sweet single track, friendly volunteers, well stocked aid stations, dust, rocks, roots and plenty of sunshine. Plus, the 50K runners will be treated to a hot feast at the finish line. 15K runners and non-runners can purchase the meal separately, either online or at the finish, for $10. We also have other registration options including the purchase of a North Face t-shirt (both men's sizing and women's sizing) for $12 and two cool mug options. These options are only available until June 1st and only available at the time of registration.

The SOB is the fourth race in the Oregon Trail Ultramarathon Series and is a benefit for the Pacific Crest Trail Association, brought to you by the race directors Rob Cain and John Price and the many ultra runners of Southern Oregon.

NOTICE: No refunds, transfers or postponements. If you cannot run for any reason, please know that your entry is going to a good cause as a donation to the Pacific Crest Trail Association. Unless by prior arrangement with the race directors, the t-shirt and mug must be picked up on race day. Any not picked up by the end of the race will be sold to attendees.
