LMJS RACING TEAM 


USATFThe Pacific Association sponsors individual and team competition in road racing, mountain ultra trail running and cross country racing called the Grand Prix Series with prize money. These each consist of twelve to sixteen races spread around Northern California throughout the year. All the information about membership, schedules, races and team standing can be found @ PAUSATF.org. Click the Sports tab on top to find specific information about the different series. 

The purpose of fielding our age-group teams in this competition is not as much about winning, but about trying your best, promoting camaraderie in LMJS, and getting a little outside your comfort zone by racing against the most competitive runners in Northern California.

The races range in length from 1 mile to the marathon with point totals being kept over the race series for both individuals and teams. To view a schedule for the Road Race Grand Prix Series click here.   

The Cross Country Grand Prix Series begins in mid August, and continues through November with races almost every weekend. These are in different locations on mixed road and trail, and range from 3-4 miles for women and 3-6 for men.  For a more thorough description, see "What is Cross Country?". Click here to see the 2021 schedule. 

LMJS Racing Team has been racing The Ultra Running Grand Prix Series consisting of 16 races trail races from 50K to 100M.  Teams of 3 can be female, male or mixed male and female.   

The LMJS team was formed in April 2010 and has grown from the first group of 11 racers to about 90 in 2021.   LMJS team members are free to mix and match races from all 3 series. There is no minimum race requirement to be on the team.  Any club member is welcome  to join at any time!

To compete for the club, you must join the Pacific Association USATF, a cost of $35 per year. If you are already a PA member and race for another team, all you have to do to compete for LMJS is to change your affiliation and you can race for us after 90 days. The team usually funds a few races for everyone that wants to race, pays gas toward carpools of 3, and renews the PA membership for the following year for any team member having raced 3 times the preceding year.
