The Winter Mountain Running Series is not just another race series. It is seven weekends of grit, camaraderie, and discovery as runners and hikers take on a new summit every Saturday through the coldest months of the year. From Badger to Red Mountain and all the way up to the legendary McBee Vertical Mile, this series is designed to test your spirit and sharpen your legs for the adventures ahead.

All ages, paces, and abilities are welcome — from seasoned mountain runners to hikers looking for a winter challenge. This series is about more than miles. It is about building a community, finding motivation in the chill of winter, and preparing together for Laliik 25K, 11K, and 5K in March. Show up, push through, and join the Iron Goats who earn their place with consistency, determination, and plenty of grit.
