Fish Hoek, Western Cape (South Africa) - "STBB Redhill Marathon, Classic and 13km Challenge". The first Red Hill Classic was run almost half a century ago as a training run for the Peninsula Marathon. No one could find a suitable short cut so, instead of a customary 20 mile (32km) marathon-prep course, the distance was set at 36km. In 1984, when the Two Oceans Marathon introduced qualifying marathon criteria for their event, a six kilometre loop was added for those who wanted to extend themselves from the 36k Classic to a full marathon (and has been a permanent fixture at the race since 1992). The route has remained constant over all this time save for two exceptions: The start line and first three kilometres has shifted around the perpetual roadworks to upgrade Kommetjie Road and Ou Kaapse Weg. However, Fish Hoek AC has built up a good relationship with the construction company and in 2019 they had a team working throughout the night to resurface the road for the runners, finishing up and providing the clearance to run just ten minutes before the race started. In 2008, a massive veld fire swept over the route resulting in road closures. People joke about building aeroplanes in the sky but the Red Hill race committee did just that - organising a new route on race morning and only finalising the marathon route after the race had already started. The 2008 event was something of a defining moment for the club and since then the race medal and club logo were redesigned to include the three flames to commemorate the experience. www.fishhoekac.com

Pasco, Washington (United States of America) - "Big Cross Frozen Tundra Trail Run". A wintertime race to remember! There are three races to choose from: Coed Recreational, Women's Competitive, and Men's Competitive. Each race has a separate start time and will take up to 80 participants. Participants will be assigned a starting position. Race packets will be available at the assigned start position approximately 20 minutes before each race. The course will be 2.5 miles in length on the woodchip/dirt/gravel trails at Big Cross in Pasco. We have added the option to create teams in 2023 for each of the races. This is for spirit and for bragging rights. We will keep track of and score teams as in a regular Cross Country meet with first 5 team members scoring. At this point the only reward will be bragging rights. Although not required we encourage teams to create and wear a team uniform. NOTE: All registration is online. There will be NO day-of onsite registration. www.runsignup.com/Race/WA/Pasco/TheBigCrossTeen25mileTrailRun
