Loop Out the Year - December 26, 2026
Loop Out the Year is an endurance running event on December 26, 2026, at Fort Steilacoom Park in Lakewood, WA, organized by Trail Therapy Running. The event uses a roughly 5 mile loop with approximately 520 feet of elevation gain. All distances start and finish at the barn near the dog park parking lot.
Participants select a timed event and run as many loops as they can within that time. Distances offered include:
- 3 hour event
- 6 hour event
- 8 hour event
After each loop, runners check in at the start/finish/aid station so laps can be recorded. The course passes a nearby parking lot; participants may use their vehicles as personal aid stations while still recording laps at the official aid station.
The event aid station provides water, several electrolyte options, light common food, warm beverages during the run, and soup at the finish. There will be limited gluten-free and vegan options; participants with special dietary needs should bring their own supplies. Handmade finisher awards are provided to finishers.
Registration is available online and closes on December 24, 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
