Loop Out the Year : Fort Steilacoom Park, Lakewood WA
Loop Out the Year is a timed endurance event at Fort Steilacoom Park in Lakewood, Washington. Participants choose a timed challenge of completing as many laps as possible within a set time.
Distances offered
- 3 hours
- 6 hours
- 8 hours
The main course is a 4.52 mile loop with 495 feet of elevation gain using the park trail system. During the final 1.5 hours of each timed event, participants may choose a shorter 1.4 mile loop with 125 feet of gain if they cannot complete a full loop in the remaining time. All laps must be recorded at the start/finish aid station; runners check in with a volunteer after each loop to have their lap counted.
Start and finish are located at the barn near the dog park parking lot. The course passes near the parking area on return, and participants may use their vehicles as personal aid stations while still checking in at the official aid station after each loop.
The event organizer is Trail Therapy Running. The official aid station will offer light common food items such as candy, chips, cookies, quesadillas, peanut butter and jelly, and fruit, plus water, Skratch electrolytes, warm beverages during the run, and soup at the finish.
