This is a sweet event folks! I recommend it to anyone looking for a challenging day on a mountain. The short course loops the mountain on a smooth gravel road, while the long course takes you up and over the summit of Roxy Ann Peak (Medford, Oregon's eastern horizon) on some nice single-track. The views are excellent and the wildflowers are at their peak this time of year. A great change of pace from all that road running.
