Walla Trails & Community

Walla Walla 6 Hour is a women-focused, timed trail race at Bennington Lake — built as a Trail Sisters weekend and a destination excuse to spend time together in Walla Walla. The vibe is supportive and low-stress: show up, run (or hike) your own effort, and share a day on the trails with a strong community around you. The course is a repeatable loop, which keeps logistics simple and keeps you close to aid and support throughout the day.

Hamster Endurance Runs is a timed ultra at Lake Padden in Bellingham, Washington, with 6-, 12-, 24-, and 32-hour options. You’ll run (and walk) a repeatable loop on a wide, non-technical gravel path through classic PNW forest, which keeps you close to aid, crew, and the finish-line community throughout your race. The loop is about 2.6 miles with roughly 150 feet of climbing per lap — enough to keep it honest while still being very runnable. Entry fees support Whatcom Family YMCA’s Girls on the Run, and runners who hit 100 miles in their time category earn a belt buckle.
