Hey Runner!

The August UltraSignup Hot List is here to save you from premature pumpkin spice syndrome. Did you know Starbucks drops the fall menu on August 26? That’s not cozy. That’s criminal. It’s still summer. The trails are dry, your tan lines are strong, and there’s plenty of time to sweat through another bib number.

So don’t give in to the cider cult just yet. Sign up for a race and get training because it’s still prime trail season. 😎

Here’s what’s inside:
🔥 Races still open for registration.
⏰ Price increases coming soon.

🤔 Races opening registration next month.

✈️ International races that will make you want to actually use your vacation time.

📍This email zooms in on the West: Utah, Texas, Wyoming, Montana, Oklahoma, Colorado, Idaho, Arizona, New Mexico, and Nevada.

Happy racing,
