About
Experience the beauty and spirit of Kittitas County as you run through breathtaking natural landscapes and charming small towns along the historic Palouse to Cascades State Park Trail. This unique course follows the former Milwaukee Road railroad corridor—offering runners an unforgettable journey through tunnels, bridges, and scenic backcountry terrain. A Washington State Discovery Pass is required. Teams of four (male, female or co-ed) or teams of two (male, female or co-ed) will each tackle a leg of the race, combining endurance, teamwork, and adventure in a celebration of outdoor fitness. Or challenge yourself to run the entire course solo! As noted in The Financial Times article, “The Rise of the Relay Marathon,” “Relays are the perfect Venn diagram of fitness trends: a mix of ultra-marathoning, trail running, and the great outdoors.” Come be part of this exciting trend—right here in the heart of Washington! Important Rules & Safety Notes: Zero Tolerance Policy: Absolutely no consumption of alcohol or drugs on the course. Any team found in violation will be immediately disqualified and banned from future events. Vehicle Restrictions: No vehicles wider than 80 inches or longer than 20 feet are allowed.

Obey State Laws & Volunteers: Each team member must obey all Washington State Laws and event volunteers. The Trail crosses 2 major highways.
