NATRO @ Soboba Trail Race
The event is held at The Oaks on the Soboba Indian Reservation in San Jacinto, CA. It serves as the inaugural NATRO (Native American Trail Running Organization) Marathon Championship and includes multiple trail race distances. The organizing group emphasizes connection to Indigenous lands, cultural recognition, and wellness through outdoor running.
Race distances include:
- Marathon (Native Championship Event)
- Half Marathon
- 5K Run
- Kids 3K Walk/Run (Ages 12 and under)
Both Native and Open divisions are offered. Awards will be presented to the top male and top female finishers in each distance, excluding the Kids 3K. All participants receive finisher awards, and the first 100 registered runners receive an official race T-shirt. The marathon has a documented cut-off time of eight hours and no drop-downs between race distances are permitted. Registration is limited to 100 entrants. The event is held rain or shine and operates as a cup-less race; participants are encouraged to use personal hydration bottles or packs. No refunds are available.
A portion of proceeds benefits a Noli Indian School scholar-athlete scholarship supporting a Noli student and the school's athletic department. A registration discount for Native runners is available with proof of Tribal affiliation prior to registration. The course is currently under development. Tribal identification will be requested at registration before bib issuance for the Native Trail Marathon Championship. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
