Janes Elite Racing Santa Monica

Fall buildup

The Janes are putting in the miles and gaining strength for some key winter races, USATF Club XC Nationals in December and the Olympic Trials in February. View upcoming races here.

The Olympic Trials marathon course, to be held in Atlanta, will feature sites from the ‘96 Olympic Games and pass under the Rings and Torch structure. On February 29th, Danae and Julia will race in a field of about 350 women to determine who will represent America in the Tokyo Games

The masters women hope to defend their 2018 team titles in the W50 and W40 division at the 2019 Club Cross Country Nationals at Lehigh University in Pennsylvania on December 14th. The Janes will also bring an Open Team from a burgeoning group of young and talented women to test themselves on the well-known 6K cross country course.

Janes have a long tradition of competing at XC Club Nationals! We are excited to defend our masters team titles and have our open team be competitive this year.

Often up before the sun, running with teammates and sharing stories, swapping work and life tips, the Janes are professional working women juggling training, workdays, and in many cases, families. The fall-winter racing season offers testament to their commitment to the sport and to each other.
