Trail racing in the Bay Area for October 2013

Trail racing in the bay area is at its best in  October in my opinion. The heat of summer is mostly behind us replaced by the crisp, cool autumn weather. A little rain starts to creep in and the dry dusty hardpack gives way to a softer more forgiving trail. The colors are changing and the trees are really begging to be looked at. If your not out in the woods in October you may want to check your status as a trail runner. Check out the upcoming races around the bay and do yourself a solid, sign up for an awesome race.

  1. This is a great resource, thank you. Have you considered grouping them by weekend? I have a weekend free at the end of the month, for example, so it would be good to easily find what's on offer that weekend. Just a thought though! Not complaining!

  2. Why I didn't think of that is beyond me. Now that you say it, I feel foolish for not listing these by weekend. Consider it done!
