Hosted by OUT TRAILS ! In collab with Not That Serious Running Club Wasatch Trails Collective

If this would help you get to the start line, it’s for you.

If this would allow you take on a longer distance, it’s for you.

If this would ease race morning logistics so you can feel relaxed at the start, it’s for you.

If this would help you race your best, it’s for you.

We know many people hesitate to apply for scholarships because they think, “I’m not in enough need,” or “someone else needs this more.”

This scholarship exists because childcare is a real cost, caregiving is real labor, and many women quietly opt out of races, training runs, and community opportunities because the logistics feel too expensive or too complicated.

If this eases any barrier and helps you get to the start line—it’s for you. We want to see you out there, racing with confidence.
