Join us for the Roxy Rumble during the month of May!
THE DETAILS
WHEN: Our original plans were to host this race in late August of 2020, but due to current events involving COVID-19 and local restrictions, we’ve decided to make it a FREE virtual race! You now have any time between May 1, 2020 and May 31, 2020 to complete this challenge.
WHERE: Prescott Park, Medford, OR
THE RACE
Start/Finish Area: The uppermost parking lot will serve as the official start/finish area, with the large wooden sign near the entrance as the official starting point.
Race Course: From the Start/Finish sign, you will summit Roxy Ann three times using three different trails: Ponderosa Trail, Manzanita Trail, and the Park Tower Road. Once you reach the top of each leg, you will ALWAYS descend back down Park Tower Road, hang a left at the bottom of the road, and proceed counter-clockwise back to the Start/Finish sign. The official location of the "top" of the race course is the UPPER Ponderosa trailhead sign, designated as PO4 on the map. Touch this sign and head back down! The order in which you complete the three summits is entirely up to you and the direction in which you access the trails is also your choice. Here is a Strava link with route details:
You will start your watch when you begin your first summit and stop your watch at the end of your final summit. Please use this link to record your official time and provide a link to your Strava activity (or any activity tracker you may be using)
Course Markings: All the trails are extremely well marked. Please see the map below for specifics.

Awards/Prizes: The top male and female finishers will receive a free entry into our Twin Peaks Trail Runs this fall, along with some sweet Woodlands swag! There will also be a special prize for the person who accomplishes the most “Rumbles” in May. That's right, if you aren't satisfied with your first time, or want to see how many Rumbles you can do, go for it! Your initial registration covers all your attempts.
