The races precede the Nevada Day Parade celebrating Nevada’s entry into the Union. All runners of all distances will receive a custom wooden medal! The first 300 runners that register are guaranteed a t-shirt!
The Nevada Day Classic is organized by the Tahoe Mountain Milers Runner Club in partnership with Guide Dogs for the Blind, Kaia Fit, Tangerine Design & Web and Lynn Mentzer Timing. All net proceeds go to Guide Dogs For The Blind.
Registration is open at both packet pick up and race day. There will be NO CASH TRANSACTIONS for registrations at either packet pick up or race day. We will be processing credit/debit card payments only.
