Big Sur Land Trust

2022 Race for Open Space
2022-04-01 - 2022-04-30 | CA
Thanks to all Race for Open Space Participants, Supporters, Sponsors, and Partners
Everyone who participated, supported, and volunteered at this year’s Race for Open Space is a champion for Big Sur Land Trust’s mission! Over 400 people ran, walked, and hiked at Glen Deven Ranch, Mitteldorf Preserve, Marks Ranch, or on one of our special Adventure Courses.
Between all of these stellar humans who found their wonder out on the lands they love and our generous sponsors, we raised $69,000!
Though everyone’s a winner in our book, here are the top finishers in each of our Race for Open Space categories:
