The JMTR races take place in the scenic Jemez mountains in Northern New Mexico. The course is on technical trails with a substantial amount of elevation change. The 50k and 50 mile events include extremely steep climbs and descents on very technical terrain. On the course, runners will experience high altitude (over 10,000 feet above sea level), scree fields, stream crossings, fallen trees, and other obstacles. Please review the course description page for more details. Runners are encouraged to consider their comfort level on this type of terrain before registering.

All entrants will recieve a t-shirt, a Jemez Mountain Trail Runs poster of an original painting by Secundino Sandoval (above), free entry to the pre-race pasta dinner, and other goodies as we get them figured out.

Packet pick-up will be at the pre-race pasta dinner on Friday, May 21st, from 5pm to 7pm at the Crossroads Bible Church in Los Alamos (PDF map). Packets can also be picked up at least 15 minutes before the race at the Posse Shack. There will be a course briefing and special presentation during the dinner at 6:00pm.

Refund Policy
There is no refund for withdrawing and no wait list will be maintained.

Cancellation Policy
The race director reserves the right to cancel the race in the case of conditions beyond our control such as wild fire, extreme weather, or other acts of nature or unusual circumstances. The runner's safety is the top priority in the decision. After accounting for the significant amount of funds that will have already been committed, the JMTR will return a portion of the entry fee if the race is cancelled . We'd appreciate your understanding the situation if cancellation is necessary.
