Floral Park Mountain Club presents the Inaugural Blacktail Balderdash: an off-trail footrace in the Montana Mountains. August 8, 2026 You Will Get Lost! No beating around the bush, the Blacktail Balderdash is hard. You will get lost, confused, frustrated, and may want to send us hate mail before the halfway point. Whether you believe it or not, you can push yourself harder than you think, and in that uncertainty lies the beauty of the challenge.  In between the checkpoints, there is no marked course. This is a true choose-your-own-adventure race where your ability to improvise in the woods is more important than your 5k time! This race takes place at beautiful Blacktail Mountain Ski Area, highlighting Flathead Valley's shining features including dense forests, sweeping views of the Swan Range and Glacier National Park, and a large variety of native plants and wild flowers. A Course for Everyone! To keep your imaginations active and your creative juices alive, the courses will not b

We are excited to announce the 4th Annual Swift Bear Trail Run along with the new added event of 50K! It will be held Saturday, August 8, 2026 during Hays Powwow in the beautiful Mission Canyon.

The 20 Mile run is a loop in the mountains that consists of 2 track roads, gravel, and approximately 3 miles of pavement. ***IMPORTANT 20 MILE INFO - If you expect your overall completion time to be more than 6 hours, we ask you to move your start time to 5:30 am with the 50K runners.  ***IMPORTANT 50K INFO - There will be a cutoff time for this race.

This year’s Quality of Life Run will take place on Saturday, August 8, returning to our original course from the Top of the Rims. The 5-mile race starting line will be located at Masterson Circle. From there, the course will proceed east on Highway 3 to 27th Street, then continue down to MSU-B, where the 2-Mile Race will begin. The finish line for all races will be at the cul-de-sac at N. 32nd Street and 6th Avenue North.    With the change in course and date, we hope to attract even more runners. The downhill route is ideal for athletes chasing personal best times and serves as an excellent tune-up race for the Montana Marathon in September.   The 2026 Quality of Life Run will be our 22nd annual Run and will benefit Off The Streets, a local Billings organization dedicated to helping some of our most at-risk neighbors—those experiencing chronic homelessness. Through their work, Off The Streets offers hope, the love of Christ, and practical support including stable housing, warm meals,

The Ed Anacker Bridger Ridge Run is a remote and aesthetic ~20 mile foot-race along the crest of the Bridger Mountains, near Bozeman in Southwest Montana.  It is a not-for-profit event enabled by about as many volunteers as participants.    The Bridger Ridge Run is put on & sponsored by the Big Sky Wind Drinkers, which is a premier running club for runners of all ages and abilities.  Some videos, photos, and history of this event can be found on this Big Sky Wind Drinkers webpage.   Remote and Technical! Essentially the entire route involves unstable footing, challenging ascents, brutal descents, and unpredictable weather along an exposed ridge.  Experience with mountain running is important.     No part of the route can be accessed by a road.  All supplies, including water, are hauled to Aid Stations through human volunteering.  Aid Stations will carefully track each participant's progress, and will have limited medical teams, supplies, and snacks.  Except for water, we expect

6 HOUR STRICT TIME LIMIT.  The Wicked Fast Marathon and Half Marathon in Montana, located in Livingston (also known as Yellowstone Country), is a USATF-sanctioned course that qualifies for the Boston Marathon. The marathon features a total net elevation drop of 1200 feet from the start to the finish.

This off-road marathon will be held at Red Lodge Mountain Resort. In its sixth year running, the Nitty Gritty is starting to earn quite the reputation.  And that is, one nitty, gritty marathon with LOTS of climbing all on dirt roads and single track trails. With a late August date, your summer of running and racing will be what prepares you for this “battle royal” event.  Form a six, three or two runner relay team to tackle the marathon, or if you have the grit, try the solo hot lap, half, or full marathon! The Nitty Gritty embodies our motto the most out of any race: low key, high elevation. While the terrain is challenging, everything else is lowkey and there is distance for all abilities. Dogs are welcome to run with you on or off leash, the beer and snacks might be the biggest draw….second only to the awesome people! Small but mighty, this race is for those who love trail running and everything that comes with it! Bring your bear spray, camp chair, and good attitude. So lay the pee
