Loop Out the Year
Loop Out the Year is an endurance running event held at Fort Steilacoom Park in Lakewood, WA. Participants choose a timed event of either three, six, or eight hours and run repeated laps on a looped trail course.
The course is a 5 mile loop with about 520 feet of elevation gain that uses the park’s trail system. All events start and finish at the barn near the dog park parking lot. Runners complete as many loops as they can within their chosen time event; each lap must be recorded at the start/finish aid station by a volunteer before continuing.
The event provides an official aid station offering water, several types of electrolyte blends, light common food fare, warm beverages during the run, and soup at the finish. There are limited gluten free and vegan options; participants with special dietary needs are asked to bring their own supplies. Runners may use their vehicles as personal aid stations but must still check in at the official aid station after each loop so laps are counted.
Handmade finisher awards are given to all finishers. Registration closes on December 24. The event is organized by Trail Therapy Running and takes place at 8717 87th Ave SW, Lakewood, WA.
