Overview

The BURT is a trail running event that harkens back to the days when trail and ultra running was a niche sport for peculiar people who liked testing their limits. We offer distances of 55 kilometers, 110 kilometers, and 100(ish) miles. This event focuses on community, shared experience, and a love of the trails – largely without the accouterments of modern endurance events.

The BURT course is a 55 kilometer loop that links up Bainbridge Island’s best public (and some private) trail networks. Each year, the BURT committee looks to unlock new trail connectors – making each year’s BURT better than the last. And the BURT always takes place in February. The weather should be atrocious, but we always seem to hit a (frustratingly) perfect reprieve.

Join us at the 2024 edition of the BURT! Have some fun. Support the trails. And join our community of peculiar people who like testing their limits.

Capacity

This is our first year 'going public' with the BURT 100, and as such, we have a limited capacity of 30 runners... total. We hit capacity some time back and have been adding runners to the waitlist (currently at > 20). We plan to expand capacity in the future. Thank you for your patience.
