About

TRAIL combines three separate mountain marathons over three days to create a unique challenge only 29029 could curate. This trekking adventure challenges you hike, walk, or jog 26.2+ miles each day within 12 hours. Finish each marathon to complete the coveted 3x3 — an achievement & story that nobody can take away from you.

Trail Description

The scenic mountain trails around Lake Tahoe will play host to the inaugural 29029 TRAIL event. Each day presents a uniquely different mountain marathon course including a mix of single track and rolling mountain roads, crossing in and out of US Forest Service lands. The routes are designed to have moderate daily elevation gain and loss, and include sections of the iconic Tahoe Rim Trail. Our 24-week training program will prepare you to complete each marathon with a goal of minimal jogging required.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I speak to someone if I have questions?

Yes! We will be hosting a TRAIL Q+A Zoom on Thursday, October 5th (RSVP here), or set up a 1-1 call with our team here.

What is the itinerary of the event?

Check-in begins at noon and the event will kick off at 3pm on Wednesday, October 2nd. We will have motivational speakers that afternoon to inspire everyone for the challenge ahead. You will have from 6am until 6pm each day Thursday, Friday, and Saturday to complete the daily course. We will host a ceremony to recognize everyone’s efforts on the trail followed by a celebration on Saturday night to cap things off. The event concludes at 10am on Sunday with hotel check-out required by 11am.

Do you allow spectators?

There are portions of the event that are participant-only, but spectators are allowed near the start and finishing areas where you can cheer on participants. Accommodations included with registration are for participants only except for those who purchase a Private King Ticket, where participants may have a guest stay with them if they so desire.

Does the entry fee include airfare?

No, the entry fee does not include airfare. We will take care of everything once you check in at The Ritz-Carlton on Wednesday, October 2nd.

Do you provide a packing list?

Yes, a packing list will be provided. There will also be both required and recommended items to bring. Some of the required items include a headlamp, rain jacket, gloves, and beanie. We recommend bringing trekking poles to assist with stability and elevation gain/loss, moisture wicking base layers for the varying weather conditions, as well as trail shoes to provide additional traction while hiking/jogging.

How does the waitlist work?

If a spot at 29029 TRAIL becomes available, we will contact those on the waitlist in chronological order on a first come, first served basis. Once contacted, there will be a 24- hour window to claim the spot before we reach out to the next person on the waitlist.

Due to the number of submissions, the waitlists for 2024 events are currently closed.

What type of accommodations are provided?

29029 TRAIL participants will enjoy four nights accommodations at the 5-star Ritz-Carlton, Lake Tahoe in Northstar Village! 

A Single Entry ticket includes your own bed in a shared, double occupancy room. You can request a roommate after purchase. If you are attending solo, you will be paired with another participant of the same gender.

A Single Entry Private King ticket includes your own king bed in a private room. Non-participant guests are allowed to stay with you if you so desire.

Yes, each of these meal preferences will be available at 29029 TRAIL.

Is a training plan included?

Yes, a 24-week training plan is included with your registration and will be emailed on a bi-monthly basis beginning 24 weeks prior to the event. The plan, which was specifically created for TRAIL, is a tier based system in which the participant can choose which level to follow based on the description we provide for each. We feel confident that this 24-week plan will have you prepared for the challenge. If you’re willing to put in the work, this plan will have you ready to achieve 3 marathons on your event weekend.

How long does one need to train for this?

This varies, as everyone has a different beginning fitness level. We do know that our 24-week training plan will help prepare you for the challenge. Prior to the plan beginning, preseason training suggestions will be available to assist with your preparation as well.
