Description
Welcome to the Chocolate Chip Cookie 50K Trail Run. We are excited to share Riverside State Park in Spokane. The course has awesome views of the surrounding mountains, Spokane River valley, the CCC Suspension Bridge, and haystack rocks nearby. Runners will cover a varied terrain, with some short hills, rocks to tumble on, forest air to breathe, and open prairie. The course includes single and double track trail, forest service roads, and even a little gravel and pavement thrown in.
The course is two loops with an approximate total of 2,470 feet of elevation gain. The initial 22-mile loop includes a short climb to Pine Bluff, with an aid station at mile 11. After mile 11 runners will follow the river before returning to the S/F. Then runners follow the same route they started out on, before crossing down the bluff to hook up with the trail that takes them to the finish at 31.17 miles. Drop bags will be taken to the 11 mile aid station on Carlson Road. Drop bags are also possible at the equestrian area (mile 22 aid station and Finish). We hope trail runners will come to a low key, family friendly, fall run in Spokane. There is easy access to I-90 and the city of Spokane. Most important, it is an opportunity to kick back and have a little fun doing what we all love to do; RUN TRAILS, and of course, eat homemade chocolate chip cookies!
