SAME RACE. BIGGER STORY. 🏔️

For years, Mount Rushmore got all the credit. But if you’ve run this race, you know the adventure goes way beyond the monument.

Granite spires. Alpine lakes. Winding roads through the rock. And some seriously unforgettable miles.
So starting in 2027, Mount Rushmore Half Marathon is becoming the Black Hills Half Marathon.

Same course. Same crew. Same finish line. Just a name that better captures everything you’ll experience out there.

The race is why you come. This is why you stay.

Keystone is one of those Black Hills towns where the weekend gets away from you in the best way. Taking in sweeping views of Mount Rushmore, exploring the granite spires and quiet trails of Custer State Park, and finishing it all off with local craft brews and good eats on Main Street. 

Here’s what we’d tell a friend to do around race weekend:

Not gonna lie, going through your race photos might be the best part of this job. The smiles, the hugs, the “I can’t believe I just did that” faces. Somebody has to look at all of it, and I volunteer.

2027 registration for the Mount Rainier Trail Events is open🚨

This isn’t your average road race. Expect single-track trails, more technical terrain, and absolutely incredible views that make every tough step worth it. If you want a real trail adventure while staring right at Mount Rainier, this is it.

And here’s the perk everyone’s asking about: gondola access is included with every distance — no add-on required. That’s a $55 value built right into your registration, versus the $30 upsell you’d pay elsewhere.

Bonus: Go big with a challenge event by completing the Sasquatch Double or Mountain Goat Triple and score two full days of gondola access. 🏔️🚠

Zion Half
There’s nothing quite like running and exploring in the glow of Zion. Cross the finish line and walk straight into the park, the canyons waiting for you after.
