Get set for a trail running party at Ragle Ranch in the rustic town of Sebastopol, CA where the well-known Gravenstein Apple was first introduced to Sonoma County. The race will be run on a 2 mile loop alongside orchards and vineyards, with open pastures and shady oak tree covered trails. You will have 8 hours to complete as many loops as you can while enjoying the park's idyllic setting.

Family, friends and dogs are also invited to share this day with you on the trail. Ask them to join you for a lap or let them go explore wine country and the beautiful Russian River Valley as you get your dose of trail in for the day.

Downtown Sebastopol is one mile away with some truly amazing offerings in the Barlow. After the race, you will still have plenty of time to go check out the town's charming neighborhood, shops and twisting roads.
