Bizz Johnson

The Bizz Johnson is a scenic trail running event held in Susanville, California, featuring distances of 50K, marathon, half marathon, 10K, and an Express Half Marathon with a relay option. The USATF-certified marathon course is a fast, mostly downhill route along the historic Bizz Johnson Trail through Lassen National Forest and the Susan River Canyon. Runners experience a 280-foot initial climb followed by a 1,300-foot descent over 20 miles, crossing picturesque wooden railroad bridges and passing through two former railroad tunnels. The event offers a Boston Marathon qualifier opportunity and promotes sustainability with a reduced-cup race format. All races finish at Hobo Camp with shuttle services available.
