As we gleefully watch 2020 disappear in the rearview mirror, we look ahead to 2021 with great hopes and anticipation of what the new year will bring. While the last year has been a good lesson in holding our expectations lightly, we are still doing our best to give you and the rest of our trail running community some bright spots to look forward to!<\/p>\n

We’re a bit late to put out our 2021 event calendar, and this is partly because\u00a0the last year has made us hesitant to tempt fate by\u00a0announcing our plans too far ahead of time. When we unveiled our 2020 calendar it included some new events that we’re eagerly looking forward to bringing you. Most of these events are now planned for 2021, and we’ve dreamed up more new events that we’ve put on the 2021 calendar in the meantime.<\/p>\n

Even in a typical year, there is always some chance that planned events will need to be rescheduled, modified, or canceled. This remains true for the coming year, despite the promise that the nascent vaccination campaign will turn the tide on the pandemic. In the meantime we will continue to operate under the COVID-19 safety guidance from the state for running races and similar events<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our 2021 events\u00a0are in various stages of the permission process. As we have for our 2020 events, we will notate them as “CONFIRMED” in the event title on the website once we receive adequate assurances from the permit issuing agencies. Some event web pages still have schedules and other information that reflect how these events were organized pre-pandemic, and some new event pages have very little information.\u00a0Event web pages will be updated and registration opened over the coming weeks.<\/p>\n

We hope you will use the add-to-calendar links<\/strong>\u00a0to add the events that interest you\u2014or even our whole Northwest Trail Runs calendar<\/a>\u2014to your calendar, so that you can more easily keep track of our many runs.<\/p>\n

Here is what we have for you:<\/p>\n

Northwest Trail Runs events Google Calendar<\/a>\u00a0(view in web browser)<\/h3>\n

    The Northwest Trail Runs events Google calendar will be updated with any changes to dates, times, distances, or other event details that may occur, so an advantage of subscribing is that the information stays up-to-date. Whereas we won’t be updating the individual add-to-calendar links and iCal files (and of course we’re hoping\u00a0we won’t need to.)<\/p>\n

    Anyway, we know first hand the challenges of balancing our running with other time commitments, all while dealing with the increasing amount of information that we have access to\u2014and that we often receive whether we like it or not\u2014so we hope these calendaring tools will help ease your stress by making it easier for you to control your information environment and select and track the runs\u00a0that interest you.<\/p>\n

    We wish you many happy trail runs and other good things in 2021!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
