Celebrating our 40th year, the "Big T" starts at Aspen Vista on Hyde Park Road (NM-475) in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The route climbs six miles and 2000 feet to the summit of Tesuque Peak in the Santa Fe National Forest (12,000 ft elevation) and then returns to Aspen Vista, for a round-trip total of 12 miles. Join us for an epic climb.
The Santa Fe Striders are an all-volunteer non-profit organization. Race proceeds will benefit Wings of America, an excellent non-profit based in northern New Mexico supporting running programs for Native American youth and teens.

Learn more about the host city, Santa Fe.
Santa Fe, founded in 1607, is the capital of the state of New Mexico and its principal tourist destination, renowned for its confluence of scenic beauty, long history, cultural diversity, and extraordinary concentration of arts, music and fine dining. With an elevation of 7,000 ft (2,100 m), it is not only the United States' oldest state capital but its highest, sitting at the foot of the spectacular Sangre de Cristo Mountains. And with a population of about 85,000 (2019), it's not the most populous capital, but that's part of its charm. This is not a capital that bustles with politicians but one that bustles with tourists, who flood the narrow streets around the town's plaza in the summer months to take in the beautiful adobe architecture, the unique cultural heritage, and the spectacular art that make Santa Fe one of the world's top travel destinations.
