The Broken Arrow Skyrace is proud to announce the 2026 Broken Arrow Skyrace Inclusivity Initiative, presented in partnership with ACG (All Conditions Gear), a division of Nike.

The Broken Arrow Skyrace Advisory Council launched the initiative after extensive consultations with 20 BIPOC, LTBGQIA+, and Non-Binary run clubs from across the state of California. “We have always sought to create a welcoming environment for all runners,” said race founder Brendan Madigan. “This partnership is a bold, proactive step to make trail running more accessible to historically underrepresented communities, which is essential if we truly mean “all runners.”

With ACG’s generous support, nearly 100 athletes will receive complimentary entries, early registration access, products, and/or travel stipends, as well as the opportunity to participate alongside some of the world’s top trail runners at one of North America’s largest and most competitive trail and ultrarunning events.

The goal of our Inclusivity Initiative Application is to ask listening-first questions that surface lived experience, reduce assumptions, and help us understand where systems - not people - create barriers. It is our hope to make you feel welcome before you even lace up your trail shoes at our event.

For 2026, the Broken Arrow Skyrace is excited to work with new and existing running clubs.

Applicants are encouraged to submit their application via our link in bio with run clubs chosen by no later than 4/1/26
