Evergreen Park & Recreation District (EPRD) invites runners to compete in the 2014 Evergreen Trail Racing Series, brought to you by the Stagecoach Sports Grill -- a challenging five-race series of running events on mountainous terrain around scenic Evergreen!
Distances range from a family-oriented 2-mile run/walk to an epic half-marathon to the top of Bergen Peak (elevation 9,708 feet), a climb of well over 2,000 vertical feet.
