Baldy Blitz - Bozeman, Montana - Running

The Baldy Blitz is a Running race in Bozeman, Montana consisting of a 9 Mile Trail Run.

Are you looking for a kick in the pants early season attitude adjustment trail run with a great after run gathering?

RUN BALDY BLITZ!
Ready to tackle nine-plus miles of gnarly unmarked unsupported trail running with two quad and hamstring crushing hills, the first four-plus miles straight up the second five-plus miles straight down. Throw in unpredictable weather, snow, mud, rain, blizzards, post holing and winds strong enough to blow runners off their feet and you have the perfect ingredients to kick off the summer trail run season. Baldy Blitz starts at 9am sharp and runs straight up the M trail to the top of Baldy, making sure EVERYONE touches the pipe on top then returns back to the M parking lot via a spur trail that takes the runners off the ridge to the top of Sypes (Sypes Junction - the intersection of Sypes Canyon trail and Foothills trail) and then back on the Foothills trail to M trailhead parking lot.

Sounds easy and straight forward right? Throw in unknown early season Bozeman mountain weather, trails covered in multiple feet of snow and rotten snow, no real defined way to go from Baldy to Sypes and we have the Blitz.
