Are you looking for a fun run for a great cause? If so, Heart of Cool 5k, 10k, and a half marathon are just what you are looking for! Proceeds from this race go directly back to the youth of BOMUSD (Black Oak Mines Unified School District) to inspire their future success through agriculture, engineering, and VAPA (Visual and Performing Arts). In addition, a percentage of the funds will also be used to scholarship a child to attend Camp Taylor, a camp specifically designed for youth with heart disease.

This is a family-friendly event! You can enjoy the trail with your family or if you decide you want to participate in the event without your child, take advantage of our $8 per child – child care for children ages 4 and up! Post-race food will be offered by Baja Fresh, with a vegan option. We will have lots of other snacks and drinks available after you cross the finish line (or while you wait for your loved one to finish).

The Heart of Cool Trail Run traverses some of the best trails Cool, CA, and the Sierra Foothills have to offer. Run on the same trails as many of the famous local (and world-renowned) events such as the Western States, Way to Cool, Rio Del Lago 100 Mile, and many more!

To reduce waste and the possibility of littering our trails, this will be a cup-free event. Be sure to bring a cup or water bottle that can be refilled at aid stations.
