CAMP ASAAYI
Saturday, June 15, 2024
Yá'át'ééh runners! Welcome to Asaayi!
This year’s Asaayi Mountain Races will include four events:
REGISTRATION – Registration for the 10k includes professional timing, a performance t-shirt, light post-race food, finisher’s medals, course support and awards to top finishers. Race day registration will also take place an hour before the start of the race at Camp Asaayi
ROUTES – The 10K Trail Race will begin and end at Camp Asaayi. The course begins with a loop around the shoreline of Lake Asaayi and then begins a 500-foot ascent of the trail overlooking the camp. Once topping off on the ridge, runners begin their descent back to the camp. The terrain is challenging and the views are stellar. The late afternoon start at high elevation should make for a beautiful highcountry running experience.
WEATHER – Expect summer conditions. While the race is at 7500-8000 feet elevation, the temperatures are still likely to be in the 70’s and 80’s. Cloud cover, wind or precipitation (even monsoons, of course) are possible in late June. It is advisable to look ahead at the forecast a few days before the race, checking Window Rock, AZ.

The Asaayi Mountain Run 10K, scheduled for June 15, 2024, in Navajo, New Mexico, offers a challenging and scenic trail running experience. While specific historical details about this event are limited, its location within the Navajo Nation suggests a deep connection to the indigenous culture and the natural beauty of the region. Participants can anticipate a demanding 10K course that winds through the rugged landscapes typical of this area, likely featuring a mix of dirt trails, gravel paths, and potentially some rocky ascents and descents. Expect a race that tests your endurance and agility. The terrain is characteristic of high-desert mountain environments, meaning runners will encounter significant elevation changes, exposed sections that can be hot and windy, and varied footing that requires attention. The Asaayi Mountain Run is likely to be a true test of a runner's ability to navigate natural obstacles and embrace the raw beauty of the Southwestern landscape. This event promises an immersive experience in a culturally rich and geographically striking setting.
