Since the beginning of Go Beyond Racing in 2013, we’ve taken recycling and reducing the environmental impact of our events seriously. We’ve tried a lot of different things over the years to be the best we could at this, including using compostable products, eliminating packaging, paying for carbon offsets on the shipping, using reusable dishes […]
We are doing it again – we’re going to put YOUR DESIGN on a t-shirt. We’re having another contest where anyone can submit a design idea that uses our logo and/or our tagline. We’ll pick our favorite design, pay you $200 for it, and then print some tees to sell at races and in our […]
Are you the type of runner that loves the climbs? You are part mountain goat. You can power hike the heck out of a hill. Or are you a downhiller? You take full advantage of gravity and fly down the trail. Quads be damned! The elevation profile of a race shows you where the course […]
This is the first year that Mountain Lakes 100 is using a lottery for registration. It sold out in less than 30 minutes last year.

The Friend Refund gives you an out if you had planned to run the race with friends or family, and they didn’t get selected in the drawing. […]

We pay to get our races evaluated by the International Trail Running Association (ITRA) so that they can be UTMB qualifiers. For those wanting to race around Mont Blanc, we are happy to […]

Many of our events have multiple distances; the Wy’east Wonder is a 50-miler and a 50K, Smith Rock […]
Have you ever wondered how the trail you are running on got there? Well, you know how you don’t really appreciate something, until you actually do the work yourself?
