Lastest Not Fastest
North Bonneville, United States • 4 Oct 2025
Event overview
Lastest Not Fastest is a last-person-standing trail race on Hamilton Island, beside North Bonneville in the Columbia River Gorge, Washington. The event is scheduled for October 4, 2025, and has a capacity of 125 entrants. The race is produced by Go Beyond Racing. All participants will have their distance posted to UltraSignup; a DNF is recorded only if a runner fails to complete the first loop. All non-winning participants receive a commemorative DNF glass; the overall winner receives sponsor prizes.
Course and race format
The course is a 4.13-mile loop on mostly flat trails with about 103 feet of elevation gain. Runners depart together each hour and must start each loop on the hour. Each loop must be completed within 60 minutes; returning in 60 minutes or longer results in elimination. Runners may take aid while on course but must remain on the route; leaving the course during an hour eliminates the runner. The route follows riverfront and forested sections near the Bonneville Dam, crosses a road midway, includes one hill of about 30 feet, and returns along a parking/trail area above the river.
Support and logistics
There is a single aid station at the start/finish area stocked with gels, electrolyte drink, water, snacks, and hot broths available at night. Crew is optional; crew may set up in designated parking areas but cannot access runners while they are on course. The organizer’s cancellation policy provides a 50% credit for cancellations more than 30 days before the event; no credit is given within 30 days.
