VERDUGO MOUNTAINS 10K NEWS - 2020 RACE CANCELLED!

Dear Friend of the Verdugo Mountains 10K,

​

We’ve all been working hard, and looking forward to the 10th Anniversary Verdugo Mountains 10K, scheduled for Sunday, May 3rd, 2020.  But sadly, due to the unprecedented impact that COVID-19 has had on all of us, the City of Glendale has been given no choice but to cancel this year’s event in order to protect the health of our community.

​

We had hoped to postpone the VM10K to a date later in the year, but, for a number of reasons, this proved to be impossible.  So we’ll have to wait until next year to celebrate our 10th Anniversary. Race day has already been set – May 2, 2021.  We hope you can join us, and we’ll let you know the minute registration is open.

​

Our hearts go out to all of you who have been training for our event - no one shares your passion more than we do.  Look at the bright side: you’ve just been given an extra 365 days to get in the best shape of your life for the 2021 Verdugo Mountains 10K! 

We look forward to seeing you, and celebrating with you, on May 2, 2021.

​

Thank you for your passion, your dedication, and your understanding.

The course begins in beautiful Brand Park, climbs steadily to one of the highest points in the Verdugo Mountains, and then heads back downhill for a fast descent to the finish.  Breathtaking views of the L.A. Basin, the San Fernando Valley, and the Pacific Ocean await you at every turn.  From the race’s highest point, at 2,670 feet above sea level, the panoramic view of the San Gabriel Mountains is truly spectacular.
