Additional Race Information

GrassRoots Events specializes in endurance trail races in the Moab area. Currently, GrassRoots Events directs two races, Moab’s Red Hot 50k/33k and the Amasa 10k/9mile. These events take place in the beautiful red rock canyon country Moab, Utah, is famous for. Our main goal is to preserve the small, tight, community feel endurance races have lost over the years. We are excited about the increased interest and participation in endurance races, but strive to maintain a family-of- friends feeling at our races. We hope you walk away from our events with a sense of belonging to a community of runners who truly respect and appreciate what long-distance trail running has to offer.
