The Original Bulldog Trail Run. Welcome to the Southern California’s oldest 50K!!
Come run the challenging and popular Bulldog Ultra, and choose one of two races – the 25k Trail Run or the 50k Ultra in the beautiful, scenic, Santa Monica Mountains.
The course offers epic views of untamed terrain and of the endless ocean from single track and fire roads weaving through the mountains. Do not be fooled by the beauty of the mountains and allure of the ocean. Temperatures can reach triple digits in the canyons and the climbs are steep and long. Runners will experience the full power of beauty and the beast.
Step up to the trails, tackle a 50k, or crush your past times…located close to Hollywood, Malibu and downtown Los Angeles, the Bulldog Ultra is the perfect getaway to explore SoCal’s beautiful mountains!!

Bulldog 50k is two 25k loops with plenty elevation gain and loss. It was very hot, as in recent years (according to other runners). The trail is rocky, and I saw some runners falling. Good views from the top, but few aid stations. Finisher medal of the 50k not much bigger than a coin.
Up first half and down second half
Course: normal ribbon and arrows but no mile markers. It's almost all uphill the first half and downhill the second half with a bit of single track at the end … MORE
Course: normal ribbon and arrows but no mile markers. It’s almost all uphill the first half and downhill the second half with a bit of single track at the end after 21k. Chapparal and well kept trails
People confused with starting line as there wasn’t one and people didnt know where to line up as there weren’t any visible signs available.
Ran one loop. Two, if you are running the 50k. But tiny medal. A little bigger than a coin, really. But you need to do the 50 for a buckle. I’d see unhappy faces if the 50k got the same medal! Watermelon and some drinks at the end. I’d expect more runners, especially for an anniversary race, if they took care of the runners a little better.
Challenging course, great Race Director.
