About the Event

Celebrate over a decade of community trail stewardship at the 14th annual Sierra Vista Trail Runs on March 7, 2026. This beloved local event, presented by the Southern New Mexico Trail Alliance (SNMTA), serves as the primary fundraiser for building and maintaining the stunning singletrack network in the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks region. Runners of all abilities can choose their challenge from a 50K, Half Marathon, 10K, or 5K, all starting from the Sierra Norte trailhead and showcasing the rugged high-desert beauty and panoramic vistas that define Las Cruces. The event radiates a low-key, community-focused atmosphere, encouraging participants to donate old running shoes for the Mesilla Valley Community of Hope and offering a race shirt or socks designed by a local artist.

More than just a race, it's a direct investment in the local trails, with all proceeds funding trail workdays, workshops, and the ambitious goal of constructing over 10 miles of new singletrack on the Sierra Vista Trail. The day is a true gathering for Southern New Mexico's outdoor community, featuring staggered start times, post-race food, and a free kids' fun run, ensuring the whole family can participate. Lace up for a rewarding run where every stride supports the preservation and expansion of the very trails you're racing on, solidifying a legacy of outdoor access for future generations.
