Autumn Leaves 50M/50K/30K
The event takes place in St. Paul, Oregon on October 24, 2026. It offers multiple distances: a 50 mile, a 50 km, a 30 km, and a free 1 km kids run.
The course is a 10k loop made up of about 80% paved bike path and 20% dirt single track. The route is described as very flat with small rollers and is typically runnable in road shoes despite the trail sections. Runners will need a headlamp for the first lap because it will be dark at the outset. The 50 km course is five loops and the 50 mile course is eight loops; the 30 km is three loops and has a later start time.
There are two aid stations on the course; runners pass aid stations multiple times each loop. The event is cupless so participants should bring a hydration pack, handheld, or reusable cup. A covered drop bag area, portapotties at start and midcourse, and warm food and drinks at the finish celebration are provided. Support crew access is available at the start finish and at a mid course aid station near Oak Grove.
Pacers are allowed for later laps in each race and must sign a waiver and wear a pacer bib. Awards are given for top finishers in each timed event across men, women, and nonbinary divisions, plus masters categories. Registration opens June 1, prices rise October 19, and registration closes October 22, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
