Winthrop, WA

New for 2024 all the races will start and finish from the beautiful and spacious Spring Creek Ranch on the edge of downtown Winthrop and all of the races will now be on one weekend with the 50M & 50K on Saturday May 18th and the 20M & 25K on Sunday May 19th. These changes mean easier logistics, less driving to get to the start (some folks might even want to walk to/from the their hotel), more crew access, much better parking and a bigger celebration! The courses will now go from the bank of the Methow River at Spring Creek Ranch up to the trail system at Sun Mountain, do a loop on many of the classic Sun Mountain Trails (or two loops for the 50M) up in the higher country, and then finish with a downhill to the valley floor.
