Hi all, in light of the new CDC research showing a very low risk of COVID transmission in outdoor spaces, we are revising the protocols to say that participants only need to wear masks if they cannot maintain a distance of at least 6 feet from people not in their ‘pod’. Participants should continue follow the CDC guidelines appropriate for their vaccination status. Other precautions will remain in place.  Please see the revised protocols.

The official dates for the 2021 NESS races have been posted 🙂

Dates on the individual race pages and registration forms have been updated as well.

If you are a Race Organizer, please check your race page(s) for accuracy. Contact the NESSRACE.COM webmaster if you need to change anything.
