Trail Running in Nevada City
The Yuba Gold is a self-guided trail running event located in Nevada City, California. This event follows the original point-to-point course of the Yuba Gold 50K, beginning at the South Yuba Campground and finishing in Bear Valley. Although listed as a hybrid event, it is designed for participants to navigate and complete the route independently or with personal support.
The event features a single distance option:
- 50 km (Original Point-to-Point Course)
Participants have the flexibility to choose their own date and time to run the course at any point during the month of October. The run must be completed in a single, continuous effort. While the event is self-timed, participants are required to provide proof of completion through an activity link to be included in the official standings.
The course utilizes natural trails and participants can access a provided GPX file for navigation. Because this is a self-guided format, there are no official aid stations provided by the organizers; runners are responsible for their own nutrition or may coordinate their own support. Results must be submitted within one week of the event's closing date to receive a finisher award and ranking. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
