Run to the Summit Series 

Summer 2020 edition info

In the face of race cancellations and the need for social distancing, we are finding new ways to reward you for taking on the  challenge of climbing these three mountains this summer. And of course, we want to see how fast you can go, who you go with, what the weather is like, how many moose you see... the list goes on forever.

So, find the people you want to pull into your sufferfest, sign up for the Virtual Summit Series, and fire up your GPS.

Tag us on Instagram (@RunToTheSummitSeries) and Facebook using #RunToTheSummitSeries.

Complete all three climbs and receive unique Summit Series finisher swag.

*The JHMR tram is scheduled to be closed this summer so it will not be an option to get you back down the mountain if you need to bail near the top of Rendezvous Peak.
