GET ON THE TRAILS!
GET ON THE TRAILS!
For our members we offer some great benefits! We have 3-5 mile weekly group runs and long training runs on the weekends. From 20-mile training runs with strays picked up on the way to brutal canyon climbs and soaring peaks, this is the place to be if you want to experience the Sierras. Many of our training runs are modified for runners that want shorter distances, so there are varying mileages to choose from. It's an epic day any way you slice it.
Our weekly newsletter keeps you up-to-date on what the TrailBlazers have goin' on.

A Happy Group participating in the Community Exercise Program
The Sierra TrailBlazers engage in community activities and social events to publicize the benefits of exercising. We not only exercise, we give back to our community in a number of ways. We volunteer for trail maintenance and at races, such Western States. And we partner with local groups to offer a community exercise program every year, usually during Spring.

2023 WS Volunteers
Every year we volunteer at the Western States Endurance Run. It is a great experience to see ultra-runners complete 55.7 miles through The Wilderness and The Canyons by the time they get to the Michigan Bluff Aid Station. The last of them are coming through as night falls. And all still have 44.5 miles to go!
When we call upon our members to volunteer, they come in droves. We had a blast at the Aid Station this year with our Throwback Theme. Maybe you missed the last Western States, but June is just around the corner.
