Autumn Leaves 50M/50K/30K
Autumn Leaves takes place October 24, 2026 in St. Paul, OR and offers multiple looped trail distances. The course is a 10 kilometer loop composed of about 80% paved bike path and 20% dirt single track. It is described as very flat with some small rollers and is typically runnable in road shoes despite the trail sections. A headlamp is needed for the first lap because it will be dark. Distances on the day include:
- 50 Miler: 8 loops of the 10K course
- 50 Km: 5 loops of the 10K course
- 30K: 3 loops of the 10K course
- Kid's Run: 1 kilometer
Two aid stations are located along the course and are passed multiple times on each 10K loop. The event is cupless; runners should bring a hydration pack, handheld, or silicone cup. A covered drop bag area is available at the start/finish for loop resupply. Portapotties are at the start/finish and one additional restroom is located mid-course. Support crew access is allowed at the start/finish and the mid-course aid station near Oak Grove.
Races have fixed time limits: 50 mile participants have 11 hours to complete eight laps, and 50K participants have 11 hours to complete five laps. Pacers are permitted for the final laps for 50K and 50 mile runners under specified rules; pacers must sign a waiver, wear a pacer bib, and may not carry supplies for runners. Awards are given to the top three finishers in each timed event across overall and masters divisions, including a nonbinary division, with finish place determined by first over the line and lap verification by timing mat or course marshal.
