Thank you for applying to receive one of two scholarships for runners from underrepresented communities to participate in this year's Mount Laguna Trail Marathon. We understand that there are barriers to participating in this event and are grateful to be able to offset these challenges for two under-represented, marginalized, or otherwise disadvantaged runners. Thank you to our race sponsor Injinji for providing the funding to support this effort to create a more equitable and inclusive event.
Scholarships will include one free entry to run, a $50 cash stipend to cover travel expenses, and some gear from our sponsors.
The deadline to apply is September 26, 2023. Recipients will be notified no later than October 5, 2023.
Upon being selected, all recipients will be required to register as an event participant on UltraSignUp, this includes signing all relevant participation waivers. If assistance is required to meet this requirement please let us know.
Recipients should be confident in being able to complete the run, as this scholarship is nontransferable and applies only to the 2023 event.
