Granite Gorge Yo-Yo Run is a mountain race held in Keene, New Hampshire. The course is run mostly on ski trails with some single-track, totaling about 4.9 miles with roughly 1,650 feet of ascent and descent. The race earns its name from the steep up-and-down sections that feel like a Yo-Yo as you climb the mountain multiple times, offering a dramatic and scenic backdrop.

Proceeds benefit the Keene Community Kitchen, making this event both competitive and community-focused. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
