Yá'át'ééh runners!  Welcome to Asaayi!

 

This year’s Asaayi Mountain Races will include four events:

Asaayi Bike Race (Saturday, June 15 beginning at 8:30 a.m.)Asaayi Kids Bike Race (Saturday at 8:35 a.m.)12 / 6 / 3 Hours of Asaayi (Saturday beginning at 7:00 a.m.)10K Trail Race (Saturday, beginning at 5:00 p.m.)
 

REGISTRATION – Registration for the 10k includes professional timing, a performance t-shirt, light post-race food, finisher’s medals, course support and awards to top finishers.  Race day registration will also take place an hour before the start of the race at Camp Asaayi 

 

ROUTES –  The 10K Trail Race will begin and end at Camp Asaayi.  The course begins with a loop around the shoreline of Lake Asaayi and then begins a 500-foot ascent of the trail overlooking the camp.  Once topping off on the ridge, runners begin their descent back to the camp.  The terrain is challenging and the views are stellar.  The late afternoon start at high elevation should make for a beautiful highcountry running experience.

 

WEATHER – Expect summer conditions.  While the race is at 7500-8000 feet elevation, the temperatures are still likely to be in the 70’s and 80’s.  Cloud cover, wind or precipitation (even monsoons, of course) are possible in late June.  It is advisable to look ahead at the forecast a few days before the race, checking Window Rock, AZ.
