Ferris 50 Endurance Run 2026

Visit Carson Valley’s Ferris 50 Endurance Run event returns for 2026, taking place on November 7. This exciting race invites runners to compete in their choice of 3 distances – 50 miles, 50k, or 15k – spanning along a mix of single-track trails, OHV trails, and minimal concrete.

Plus, new for 2026, Ferris 50 is introducing a 1.5K Kids Race for future ultra athletes in the making!

The 50 Mile, 50K, and 15K races will start in the arena at the Douglas County Fairgrounds at 920 Dump Rd in Gardnerville. The Kids Race will be an out-and-back from the Festival at the Carson Valley Health Finish Line in TJ’s Corral.

Whether you are an experienced runner seeking a challenge in the off-season or a less experienced runner who is ready to explore greater distances at an entry level, Ferris 50 is an opportunity to test your mind and body while taking in the captivating views of Job’s Peak and Carson Valley. Come run where grit meets greatness!
