About

Go faster. Go farther. Go beyond.

Go Beyond Racing was formed in 2013, and produces over three dozen trail races each year, with new courses always in the works.

You can count on every Go Beyond race to:

  • Be highly organized with racer safety and satisfaction as top priorities
  • Donate to a worthy beneficiary for each race
  • Have well-stocked aid stations and the friendliest, most supportive volunteers
  • Challenge and reward each participant
  • Put more time, money, and energy than most to reduce, reuse, recycle, and lessen the environmental impact of our events

Your Race Directors

Todd Janssen

Todd ran his first marathon when he was 16 and is now focused on longer events. He is a Leadman and was a member of one of the top-ranked adventure racing teams in the U.S. Todd is always looking for new ways to make races more runner-focused and to give people a reason to come back year after year. @gotodd

Renee Janssen

Renee made the progression from road races to triathlons to adventure racing to ultras and is now happiest just running through the woods. A perpetual marketer and event organizer, if Renee’s not on her phone promoting races or looking at maps for new courses, she’s trying to keep up with her twin boys. @go_renee
