The Long Watch
The Long Watch is a timed endurance event hosted at Donald Farm in Woodland, Washington. Runners cover as many miles as possible on a 1 mile loop in a choice of timed formats. A manned aid station is available and stocked with snacks and support for daytime and overnight hours.
The race takes place alongside the Warrior Expo, a multi day gathering that includes Strongman competitions, Highland Games, and medieval armor battles. The course winds through the expo grounds, passing feats of strength, competitions of wood and steel, and vendor areas. The event atmosphere changes from a festival setting during the day to a quieter, more solitary environment after dark.
Available formats:
- 24 hour format on a 1 mile loop
- 12 hour format on a 1 mile loop
- 6 hour format on a 1 mile loop
The Long Watch emphasizes continuous effort on the loop and on course support during the event. The layout and proximity to the Warrior Expo mean participants encounter both spectators and active competitions as they run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
