Frosty Moss Relay
The Frosty Moss Relay takes place on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington State, centering around Port Angeles. The event utilizes the Olympic Discovery Trail and the Olympic Adventure Trail, offering a course almost entirely off-road. Participants run on a combination of paved paths and dirt singletrack trails, passing through landscapes of evergreens, moss, ferns, and waterfront views with snowcapped mountains in the distance. The routes include locations such as the Sol Duc River, Lake Crescent within Olympic National Park, and Sequim Bay.
The event offers three main participation options:
- Frosty Moss Relay: An 80-mile course consisting of 15 legs for teams of 2 to 5 people.
- Mini Moss Relay: A 30-mile course consisting of 8 legs for teams of 2 to 4 people, starting at Ediz Hook.
- Frosty Moss 50K: A solo ultramarathon following the 30-mile Mini Moss course.
The event maintains a time limit requiring teams to maintain at least a 12-minute mile average pace. Registrants receive a swag bag, access to a mobile event app, and on-course support. Following the run, an after-party is held at the 7 Cedars Resort featuring food, drinks, and an awards ceremony. Awards are presented for various categories, including competitive placement, team themes, and spirit awards. Registration typically closes a few days before the event, and no day-of-race registration is permitted. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
