Golden Gate Dirty 30 Registration
"Thank you for putting on such a great event! It was, hands down, the best race experience I have ever had! The course was beautiful and challenging, the aid stations were packed with delicious food and the most excellent volunteers I have ever come across. It was truly a top notch production. Thank you for all of your hard work."

Dirty 30 is Cancelled!
NO SPECTATORS, FAMILIES, FRIENDS, OR RACE CREWS
Due to the significant increase in park visitation, our permit no longer includes spectators. By registering for this race you agree to honor and respect this rule. At the Dirty 30 we create a lot of support along the course and at the finish line to celebrate your huge accomplishment. This is a great opportunity for you to connect with this amazingly supportive and connected community.
CARPOOL
Due to the limited parking at this state park ALL racers must carpool with at least FOUR other racers to the start area. There will not be a shuttle bus, racer drop-off or pick-up. Please see the race details page for details about these rules and guidelines. Registering for this race indicates you agree to honor the carpool rule. This also means you will need to agree to wait until everyone in your carpool is ready to leave the race.
Create a TEAM
Everyone is encouraged to create a team. Invite your friends to join you on the Dirty 30 adventure! Running as a team is all about the support, camaraderie, and the fun of taking on a big challenge together and keeping each other focused and accountable to reach the finish line. Since we are stronger together, you’ll stay motivated, even during the dark days of winter! And, consider inviting your friends that are road runners who have never experienced a trail run before. Enter your team name on your registration page in Ultra Sign Up at the time or after you register. Make sure that everyone on your team enters the same name. Since everyone can log onto their Ultra Sign Up account and add their team name to their registration page, you can continue to add team members after you register.
