Embark on a scenic adventure at The Pena Passage, Lagoon Valley's Trail Race, taking place on Saturday, June 13, 2026, in the stunning Lagoon Valley Park in Vacaville, CA. This inaugural event, presented by Altra, offers distances for every runner, including a challenging 30K, a spirited 10K, a foundational 5K, and an untimed 1K Kids Fun Run. Runners will traverse a diverse landscape of rolling hills, a shimmering lagoon, winding single-track trails, and expansive fire roads across the park's 470 acres.

The course is designed to thrill and test participants of all levels. The 5K route offers gentle terrain with some adventurous single track, perfect for families and those new to trail running. Step up to the 10K for more rugged sections and elevation, rewarding your endurance with sweeping views of open grasslands and shaded oak groves. For seasoned trail enthusiasts seeking a true test of resilience, the 30K multiplies these challenges, featuring a mix of technical climbs and descents that showcase the park's natural beauty. All courses are thoughtfully marked and well-supported with aid stations stocked with essential hydration like electrolyte drinks, water, and energy gels, along with snacks such as pretzels, M&M's, bananas, and watermelon to keep you fueled. Aid stations will also provide first aid kits and sanitary pads.

Typical race day conditions in mid-June in Vacaville bring highs around 89°F and lows around 58°F, with a minimal chance of precipitation. Beyond the exhilarating trails, participants will receive a long-sleeve tech tee with sun defense and moisture-wicking technology. The Pena Passage celebrates the joy of movement, community spirit, and the tranquility of nature, all while supporting mental health awareness through NAMI Solano County.
