The TOUR Stage Race (June 18–20, 2027)
The TedDriven Overland Ultra Relay (TOUR) is a three day stage relay through North Central Washington for teams of runners. The event combines singletrack, logging roads, and paved sections with map based navigation rather than chip timing or digital route tracking. Each day covers approximately 75 miles divided into 16 legs, with cumulative team times recorded from the stage results.
Routes traverse a variety of terrain and communities: Day 1 runs around Plain, WA through alpine forests and ridgelines; Day 2 goes from Mission Ridge to Cashmere, WA across orchards, vineyards, and foothills; Day 3 moves from Entiat to Fields Point on Lake Chelan, including remote sections and a finish on the lake shore. Teams receive printed maps and elevation guides, and PDF maps with turn by turn descriptions are provided about one week before the event. Course markings are minimal to encourage map reading.
Logistics and support reflect a low tech, self supported emphasis. Team size is 8 runners. Entry fee is $1,600 per team with discounts for military, non profit, and student teams; registration partner fees and taxes are additional. Teams supply transportation, hydration, and food. Medical coverage includes a certified medical professional on course daily. Portable toilets are available at designated sites and teams must pack out all waste.
The event includes finisher awards, event photos, a captain’s dinner and pre race meeting, and a post race celebration with food and drinks. A portion of proceeds supports cancer research and local trail building and advocacy organizations. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
