About the race
The Freedom 50 is an out-and-back ultrarun along the Foothills Trail in Puyallup, WA, held on May 29, 2027 and organized by Freedom Ultra Runners. The event offers two distance options:
- 50 Mile
- 50K (31 miles)
The course is mostly paved and runs from downtown Puyallup toward Enumclaw and South Prairie, with short sections on the Puyallup Riverwalk and connecting shoulders or sidewalks. The route features a subtle, gradual incline on the outbound half and a gentle decline after the turnaround, with a crossing of the White River Bridge on the 50 mile route. The 50 mile turnaround and final outbound aid station is at the Veterans Monument in Buckley Memorial Park, near 251 S River Rd, Buckley, WA at mile 25.
Aid is provided on course: the 50 mile field visits eight fully supported aid stations plus the finish, while the 50K has four support stops. The race starts and finishes at Diamond Detail, 412 E Main Ave, Puyallup, WA 98372. There is a 15 hour cutoff for the event.
Sponsors include Diamond Detail, Crossfit Puyallup and Tacoma Trophy. Per entrant benefits listed by the organizer include a $110 Diamond Detail gift certificate, one month free unlimited CrossFit at Crossfit Puyallup, a finisher's medal for all finishers, and other limited-entry and merchandise provisions.
