Things To Do: Mt Charleston

There are hikes for all abilities and distances near Mt Charleston, but if you want a short (1.5 miles one way) hike to see great views of the course, you have got to do Cathedral Rock. The trail starts right near the full marathon start. It climbs about 1000ft, so it is strenuous, but nothing that you couldn't handle the days before or after a marathon. Afterward treat yourself to a post-hike meal at the Mt Charleston Lodge and make sure to tell them you are doing the half or full marathon.

To plan your Mt Charleston visit, check out the Go Mt Charleston website.

Sponsor Highlight

Participant Highlight

Congratulations to Grant Nesbitt for winning the HOKA One One Boston Sweepstakes! Grant crushed the Big Cottonwood course with a 3:19:10 BQ and will receive one roundtrip ticket to Boston and a 3-night stay. Grant came off a torn plantar fascia injury 5 years ago. During his recovery he tried every shoe he could find only to be left with shooting pain. It wasn't until his friend introduced him to HOKA's that he realized he had a chance to run again. After pain free running, Grant was back to doing what he loved!
