The morning after the Alley Loop, a 15K classic race on the East Side trails for anyone whose legs have something left to say.

Part of the Pinnacle Orthopedics Community Race Series from CB Nordic: a different format and location each week, 5 to 25 kilometers for the main event, a 3 to 6 kilometer short course, and a free 1 to 2 kilometer kids race. Points accrue through the season, your best three results count, and the series wraps with awards after Magic Meadows Mayhem in March.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Each race stands on its own. For the series standings, your best three long course scores count, and a fourth score only breaks ties.

Only the long course. The top 10 men and top 10 women earn points, 10 for first down to 1 for tenth, and the finale at Magic Meadows counts one and a half times.

Online through RunSignup, race by race. Registering for all six races takes 20 percent off, and the kids race is free.
