course markings were very clear with combo of chalk arrows and confidence streamers. while most of the course was gently rolling wide trail, it had just enough vert and technical singletrack to get you shouting WOOHOO! Warm and friendly race staff at check in and starting line.

the course was clearly marked and the aid stations were nicely placed throughout the course. Due to rain, the course was so muddy and wet in some parts but it was a beautiful run-through dash point. By some sort of miracle, I did not fall and that was my second goal aside from finishing! Would do it again, planning on doing again! Such a fun experience for my fist ever trail run.
Dashing all the way
Beautiful race nestled in the Dash Point Park. The stairs at the start tried to kill me, but after that it was a great up and down course. Evergreen Trail … MORE
Beautiful race nestled in the Dash Point Park. The stairs at the start tried to kill me, but after that it was a great up and down course. Evergreen Trail has the racing gig down to an art and science.

Nice mix of support and stretches of solitude. Staggered starts for pandemic safety. Plenty of time for us slower paced runners to complete two loops for the half. No better way to spend a Saturday.

This is a great race option for first-time trail runners. Good trail with slopes that make the run challenging, but not too hard that it’s not enjoyable. Race well-organized with clear markers. Crafted wooden coasters were an awesome finishing gift!

This is a great race to get some hill training in while running the trails. The trails present a constant stimulus of soft soil mixed with roots and rocks and fun corners throughout the race.

This park has a great set up. Trail is full of twists, turns, creeks, stairs and the like. The course is rated as beginner, but it still has plenty of challenges so have to watch where you are stepping. Evergreen Trail Runs completion swag is minimalist but neat. I love the wood carvings. Dash Point is a coaster, so will think of the race whenever use it.
Definitely dash to do this one!

Evergreen Trail Runs has a knack for putting on really fun trail runs that can be enjoyed by every kind of runner, no matter the level of experience. The Dash Point race will make you feel like a kid again, running through the forest. Lots of variation in terrain makes the race fly by and before you know it, you are at the finish! The food afterwards was amazing and really hit the spot. And as always, everyone at these races is super friendly. I can’t say enough about how well these races are organized.
