Volunteer

In 2001, a local runner established the region's first competitive trail races with the River Gorge 10.2 mile and Stump Jump 50k. Since then, the popularity of trail-running has exploded, to which Bad Beard Events have responded with beautiful, well-managed races that benefit both our community and our natural surroundings.
