It was very beautiful. Lovely smooth trails and I felt like it was a fast course you can really fly through. Not too many roots or rocks at all. I had a lot of fun and plan to do this race again. Maybe one day I can jump to the 50K. Totally recommend. The course was marked so well too. No way to get lost.

I was jonsing for a race, so, yes, I did drive all the way to Monterey for a 10k!
I’d heard great things about the Inside Trail Racing so I was excited to finally get to one – I was not disappointed.
The pros:
The course was lovely! The first three miles of the 10k were pretty much all downhill, unfortunately that makes the last three miles all uphill, but the views made it worth it. The swag was great – the shirt and medal were really well done.
The cons:
The pre-race parking was a bit slow and difficult. There weren’t a ton of post-race snacks for the 10k racers, but they were also doing a 25k and a 50k that day so I’m guessing that they hadn’t put the snacks out yet.
Overall:
A beautiful, well produced race – I’ll be back!

This was my second time doing this 50k. The first time I got lost a extra few miles and ended up on the 100k course for a bit. I was not the only one it happened to a few other this year as well. Be sure to look at signs. It was kinda folded over and it said 100k but I thought was for the 50k. I think this is a beautiful course and to me the last 6 miles are the hardest. Bring a flashlight in case it takes you longer than you might think. Aid stations are fully stocked with great snacks and drinks. In the end you get a great shirt, pint glass and a little medal. I will be doing it again 2017 🙂

Be prepared for a rougher 2nd half of the race due to the climbs at the end, aid stations are spaced out so re-fill on fluids. Mix of single track, fire roads, dirt, sand, and rocky surfaces. Not too technical so good for a beginner.
