The race sold out, so we opened a waitlist
Since we only had 60 spots available this year, the 2024 WYR100 sold out quickly — meaningfully faster than any prior years.
We opened a first-come, first-served waitlist from which we’ll grab runners as spots become available. We’ll freeze the waitlist on Friday, July 26 — two weeks before race day.
Looking ahead to 2025, we’ll likely implement a lottery system. We’re not exactly thrilled by this prospect, so bear with us as we hammer out the mechanics.
Updated course for 2024
Sorry, folks — it’s time to say goodbye to Pickle Pass.
For 2024, we’re altering the northern third of the course to add a bit more “clean” trail and another large climb. We’re also removing the 20-mile stretch without crew support and shifting the finish to another, albeit larger, private ranch. The race’s total elevation remains about the same, although runners can expect another mile — about 105 in all.
From a difficulty standpoint, we believe the changes are a wash. Yes, runners won’t have to deal with the pain cave that is Pickle Pass, but they’re swapping it for back-to-back 3,000’ and 2,500’ climbs.

Dedicated to the landscape
Tucked away in southwest Wyoming, below the Tetons and above the Wasatch, sits the Wyoming Range. This stretch of mountains is home to the Wyoming Range National Recreation Trail (WRNRT), a 75-mile stroll through some of the most beautiful high country imaginable. The WRNRT sits at the heart of the Wyoming Range 100, giving runners the opportunity to immerse themselves in wilderness while still running a supported race.
Built for a grueling finish
With 24,000’ of climbing and an average elevation of 8,500’, prepare yourself for a grueling run that offers few breaks. Don’t worry too much, though — time is on your side. With a generous 48-hour cutoff, we want every runner to complete the 105-mile epic. We designed the Wyoming Range to be challenging but finishable.
Hardock 100 qualifier
The legendary folks at the Hardrock 100 asked if the Wyoming Range 100 would to join the “wild and tough” ranks of Hardrock qualifiers. After talking with key stakeholders, we proudly said, “Count us in.”
This is a graduate-level race with no shortage of challenges. You'll run in grizzly country. You'll have ten-mile stretches between aid stations. You'll cover rough and disappearing trail. You could run through snow, lightning, and white-out conditions. At this race, you must be prepared for everything.
Of course, if you’re considering the Wyoming Range 100, please do not sign up simply because it’s a Hardrock qualifier. We want you to cherish our event and the landscape through which it runs on their own extraordinary merits.
