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 for the 2025 edition of the BURT! Have some fun. Support the trails. And join our community of peculiar people who like testing their limits.

Capacity

55k: 15 runners
110k: 10 runners
100M: 5 runners
Event's current local time: 10:50 AM PT
