°F Full forecast

This run involves a rugged, challenging course which starts off flat, progresses over some hills in the middle, and is followed by a downhill and flat finish. For the past 38 years, the Dammit Run has grown in popularity (over 800 runners last year). The reason for this growth... is due to the beauty of the course, which travels along the creek trail and through the wooded hills. After the race, runners enjoy various vendor booths, a post race raffle (prizes are donated by generous local merchants), refreshments, music and down-right fun. The race starts tamely enough on the track at Los Gatos High School, and it will finish in the same location. Participants run down the trail next to Los Gatos High School's lower field, past the Old Mill onto the Los Gatos creek trail and make the climb up to Lexington Reservoir. Runners continue up Saint Josephs Hill (Jones Trail), loop around and head back down the hill to College Avenue. They then reenter the trail and finish on the track at Los Gatos High School. Race-day registration began at 6:30AM with a race start of 8:30AM. read more
