The 56th Annual Beartooth Run is back on top as the highest 5k/10k road race in the US (sorry all you Half-ers, Pikes Peak ascent goes higher)! Enjoy a breathtaking drive up the Beartooth Pass before the race course takes your breath away! Each race starts at 10,500 and tops out at 11,00ft. The only thing that will make you forget you're running uphill at high elevation are the views of wild flowers, high mountain plateaus, glaciers, and maybe mountain goat or two!

Tour de Wyoming 2026
Circling Heart Mountain
The 2026 Tour de Wyoming gathers in Powell, Wyoming on July 11. We have a mandatory orientation meeting at 7 p.m. that evening, then we start riding the next day.
Day 1 (Sunday, July 12), 56 miles - We spend the day pedaling a large loop, exploring the Bighorn Basin, passing through several small towns and pedaling rolling terrain along the Shoshone River before returning to Powell for the night.
Day 2 (Monday, July 13), 74 miles - We start the day with a repeat of the route from Day 1 before heading to the northwest and into Montana. We tackle the long climb as the route turns due west toward Red Lodge. The final miles descend into Red Lodge, but our overnight stay is on a bench above town on the west side, at the fairgrounds.
Day 3 (Tuesday, July 14), 65 miles - We start the day with a short climb out of Red Lodge and then a nice decent on the route we climbed up on Day 2. We turn south and cross back into Wyoming and continue on to Cody where we will spend the next two nights.
Day 4 (Wednesday, July 15), 78 miles - We have an out-and-back route that goes from Cody, along the edge of Buffalo Bill State Park via the Lower Southfork Road, and then rejoining the Southfork Road that parallels the Southfork Shoshone River. Riders can turn around whenever they choose.
Day 5 (Thursday, July 16), 77 miles - We head east out of Cody with a gradual descent for about 30 miles before we turn north along a low-traffic highway, going parallel to the Sheep Mountain Uplift, to end the day in the friendly community of Lovell. We will be camped at the high school for the night.
Day 6 (Friday, July 17), 28 miles - This day we leave Lovell and take mostly county roads back across the Bighorn Basin to return to where we started in Powell.
This is a fairly flat, fast course on Thiel/River Rd and follows along scenic views of the Yellowstone River and it's wildlife.

Aptly named for the rugged men who explored this area starting in the 1860s, the Prosepctor is a brand new race for 2023! The views are as good as the gold they were looking for. If you can pull your eyes away from the surrounding mountain views, you’ll run by big and small reminders of the mining activity including homesteads, mine equipment, and endless spur roads.
The Prospector 50k/30k races operate under a Special Use Permit from the Gardiner Ranger Distrcit.
This year’s Quality of Life Run will take place on Saturday, August 8, returning to our original course from the Top of the Rims. The 5-mile race starting line will be located at Masterson Circle. From there, the course will proceed east on Highway 3 to 27th Street, then continue down to MSU-B, where the 2-Mile Race will begin. The finish line for all races will be at the cul-de-sac at N. 32nd Street and 6th Avenue North.
With the change in course and date, we hope to attract even more runners. The downhill route is ideal for athletes chasing personal best times and serves as an excellent tune-up race for the Montana Marathon in September.
The 2026 Quality of Life Run will be our 22nd annual Run and will benefit Off The Streets, a local Billings organization dedicated to helping some of our most at-risk neighbors—those experiencing chronic homelessness. Through their work, Off The Streets offers hope, the love of Christ, and practical support including stable housing, warm meals, and employment opportunities. Quality of Life is grateful to partner with Off The Streets for this meaningful event.
The Quality of Life Community Involvement Program was created by the Billings Association of REALTORS in 2004. The goal is to help raise awareness of and money for non-profits in the community that are working to improve the quality of life for our residents. The Quality of Life program has grown significantly since 2004, including the addition of a second event – The Quality of Life Casino Night, which will be held on April 16, at the Billings Depot. The recipients of our funds from the 2026 Quality of Life Casino Night will be the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Eastern Montana to supply and support their Family Room at St. Vincents NICU.
Following our Run in 2025, we are so proud to announce that to date, more than $1,000,000 has been raised for non-profits through these events over the past 21 years! We are so proud of this accomplishment!

Welcome to the first Red Lodge mountain bike race in ten years! Rough Cut Trailfest, based out of Red Lodge Mountain and venturing onto surrounding trails in the Custer Gallatin National Forest, will host three distances, include camping, family activities along with Red Lodge Mountains activities open to the public including disc golf, hiking and scenic lift rides.
Course Descriptions
25 Mile - Begins and ends at Red Lodge Mountain. Start with a single track loop at RLM, then make your way through a single track descent through Custer-Gallatin National Forest on singletrack, doubletrack, and a brief paved section. You'll know how Rough Cut became the name. Red Lodge is known for keeping singletrack exactly what it is and our trails are hand built. This is not a beginner friendly ride, intermediate skills are necessary. Limited to 50 riders.
50 Mile - two loops of the 25 mile Rough & Gritty Fun! Limited to 45 riders.
4 ish Mile - a little more intermediate friendly, but still not a beginner loop. It's 4-ish because Beartooth Trails and the locals will continue to build throughout the summer and we will ride what we add on!
This is a fundraiser for two grassroots nonprofits, Red Lodge Bike Center and Beartooth Trails. Without these two organizations, we wouldn't have a local bike center or much for trails to ride. These are volunteer-board led organizations with MANY local volunteers getting greasy, dirty and giving time to keep the bike scene alive. We're stoked our partners at Red Lodge Mountain and Red Lodge Events have teamed up with us to bring back a mountain bike race to Red Lodge. Our race operates under a permit from the Custer Gallatin National Forest.
Route Links
*Notes about the course files
The Trailforks file is the most accurate, but 50 milers will need to restart the course after Lap 1.
The first four miles of the course (and miles 25-29 for 50mi riders) are on newer singletrack at Red Lodge Mountain. Some of the trails aren't yet on Trailforks and are very close to Red Lodge Mountain service roads, and some have seen re-routes from the trails currently mapped on Trailforks. Despite very accurate GPX files, your head unit may still chirp at you telling you to make a u-turn, reroute, etc... ignore this and follow course markings. Things will be very well marked here.

This off-road marathon will be held at Red Lodge Mountain Resort. In its sixth year running, the Nitty Gritty is starting to earn quite the reputation. And that is, one nitty, gritty marathon with LOTS of climbing all on dirt roads and single track trails.
With a late August date, your summer of running and racing will be what prepares you for this “battle royal” event. Form a six, three or two runner relay team to tackle the marathon, or if you have the grit, try the solo hot lap, half, or full marathon!
The Nitty Gritty embodies our motto the most out of any race: low key, high elevation. While the terrain is challenging, everything else is lowkey and there is distance for all abilities. Dogs are welcome to run with you on or off leash, the beer and snacks might be the biggest draw….second only to the awesome people! Small but mighty, this race is for those who love trail running and everything that comes with it! Bring your bear spray, camp chair, and good attitude.
So lay the peer pressure on your friends, because its time to get down to The Nitty Gritty!
Race Start Times: (Please arrive 45 minutes before your start time for registration and a pre-race meeting)
Teams: 9:00am
Solo Full: 7:30am
Solo Half: 11:00am
Hot Lap: 1pm
An all-women tour on the Beartooth Pass. We've thought of everything you need to ride well. We'll even supply the fun, help check over your bike and cheer you on to the summit, 10,947 ft. BYOB(ike) or inquire about a rental if needed. Registration includes Beartooth La Femme Limited Edition Terry Jersey, dinner at pre-ride meeting night before by The Wild Table, pre ride breakfast snack, route food, rider identification, finish line beverage and swag bag.
Schedule: Gather Sunday, August 16, mandatory ride meeting after dinner and some inspirational fun at the Roosevelt Center after dinner. Monday, August 17, ride roll out at 7:30 am. And yes, Monday. Why? Early weekdays are the best day to experience the Beartooth Pass. We've got years of experience in this area not only riding but also hosting other events.
Beartooth La Femme: A 62 mile out and back on the Beartooth Pass to the Summit of 10,947 ft. 31 miles in from our downtown Red Lodge start. Red Lodge is 5,555 ft. in elevation so you not only double your elevation but you'll see why the Beartooth Pass is not easily ridden. We will crown one Beartooth La Femme Queen who reaching the summit first - clock will begin at 7:30 for those seeking the Beartooth La Femme crown. But fear not, there will be be no timing chips and we will restrict outside tour support as the pass has enough challenges without looking like a race. Our vehicles and rest stops will be the support and we will ask anyone with an outside vehicle supporting them to leave the tour if they are adding unnecessary congestion.

Welcome to the 7th annual Fistful Of Dirt - the wild west of gravel riding right here in Cody, Wyo. Get your bike tuned up and pull your hat down tight – this ain’t your mama’s gravel bike race. Sunday, September 6th will be a wild west gravel grinder of grand proportions.
The Sheriff still has the same distances and whether you choose to ride The Good (20 Miles), The Drifter (47 Miles), The Bad (67 Miles), or The Ugly (108 Miles), you’re sure to get a hearty mouthful of our Whiskey Gravel – we leave the champagne to the city folk. From the Peaks of the McCulloughs, to Oregon Basin and through exclusive access on the iconic Hoodoo Ranch – The Sheriff of Fistful Of Dirt brings you the very best of the west. Smooth and chunky gravel, nicely packed dirt, some single track, some rocks, and a little bit of sand thrown in for good measure are what make up The Sheriff’s Whiskey Gravel. Please note that our gravel comes in all shapes and forms - part of the fun and challenge of Fistful Of Dirt is the potential roughness and unpredictability of our terrain. Our courses are definitely designed for gravel bikes, but for the 20-Mile course, some folks may be more comfortable on a mountain bike.. E-Bikes only allowed in the 20-Mile "Good" distance.
AND, for 2026, we're continuing the Sheriff's Purse the Fistful Of Dirt Ugly & Bad distances with separate and equal divisions for men & women. The Sheriff's Purse is our very own purse-prize structure in which everyone has a chance at winning, and you won't know 'til you finish where you stand. Scroll to the bottom for Sheriff's Purse details.
Once you cross the finish line, the party is on for all riders! Cool your blazing saddle with a bustlin’ post-ride shindig – the music will be pumping and the beer will be cold. Enjoy Cody for a weekend full of bikes, brews, and attractions. Whether you ride, or just come for the fun, it’ll be a wild west weekend to remember.
This year's race will be capped at 300 racers - so get in there early!
What you get when you register:
An amazing race through beautiful Wyoming public lands, and some very special private land
Custom FFOD Schwag - TBD (check back!)
Free drinks and music at packet-pick up on Saturday
Free beer and food truck meal ticket at the finish line
A chance at winning a custom FFOD bolo tie for the top 3 male and female finishers in each race (first place only for E-bike division unless we get a bigger turnout)
A chance at winning some of the Sheriff's Purse - check out fistfulofdirt.com for more details on that
A dang good time
The Sheriff's Purse - $3500 for The Ugly & The Bad - Here's how it works...
The Sheriff will be awarding cash prizes for 1st place male & female finishers in 3 divisions for The Ugly and The Bad races. The first division will be the 1st overall male & female finishers of each of the two races. The second division will be the 1st male & female finishers that are at least 1 hour after the 1st place male & female finishers (respectively) of the first division. The third division winners will be the 1st male & female finishers at least 1 hour after the 1st male & female finishers (respectively) of the second division.
Everyone has a chance for some cash…
The Sheriff’s Purse not only recognizes elite riders, but also those who have the grit of the west. If you’re a front runner, you know where you stand…but if you’re not, you’ll just need to keep giving it your all to find out where you land when you cross the finish – everyone has a chance to win some of the Sheriff’s Purse – and we sure hope you’re one of them, pardner!
