Get ready for the 43rd edition of the Jed Smith Ultra Classic. The certified course is nearly identical to the course used for the 2011 World Masters Championship Marathon. Looking for a BQ or PR? This course promises to be fast! Each loop is 4.85 miles long. This is the course Jim Walmsley set the New 50-Mile World Best in the Hoka One One 100k Challenge in May 2019.
We are continuing with the course along the American River that we’ve used since 2011. We believe you will enjoy this scenic route. It is very fast and virtually identical to the marathon course for the 2011 World Masters Championships. This is not a trail race.
The staging area (start/finish) is the Watt Avenue access to the American River Parkway.
