Running Up For Air - Moab

Run or hike up and down a beautiful, iconic trail in Moab, UT! See how many laps you can do in 3, 6, or 12 hours.

Starting at the Moab Rim Trailhead, people will hike or run up the Stairmaster Trail to reveal an expansive view of the Moab valley and the snowy La Sal Mountains in the background. Stairmaster is a rocky singletrack, gaining 890 feet in .95 miles. Participants then turn around and descend the parallel Moab Rim Trail, which is a 4WD track on pure slickrock, the bare sandstone Moab is renowned for. This is the exact same distance so is equally steep; RUFA Moab is an excellent course to see how much vertical gain you can accomplish.

The Up For Air Series brings endurance athletes together to celebrate a shared passion for running, amplify informed dialogue about air quality issues, and support organizations that are working toward solutions. We strive for a minimal footprint on the trails but maximal impact on the nonprofits fighting for cleaner air in our communities.
