Big Slo Running is a registered 501(c)(3) Corporation which was founded in 2018 out of our love for nature and the trail and ultra-running community. We set out to create a platform that brings people together through trail running events — not only to celebrate endurance and the outdoors, but also to make a difference. Our races support local charities and mission work in Haiti, allowing us to positively impact lives both here at home and abroad.​​

 

​​​Big Slo Running hosts inclusive, environmentally responsible trail and ultra-distance events that inspire healthy lives and turn every mile into funding for local charities, trail preservation and management, as well as mission work in Haiti.​

 

At Big Slo Running, everyone belongs. We welcome all runners, fast and slow—but we hold a special place for the back-of-the-pack athletes chasing cut-offs, the big-and-slow, steady movers who redefine courage at every mile. Because we’re big and slow ourselves, we build inclusive events with generous time limits, supportive volunteers, and a finish line that waits.  

We Stride With Purpose.​
