Intro
Come push yourself to the limits with friends and celebrate freedom in the best way you know how... in the pain cave.
Whether you are shooting for your first ultramarathon finish or if you are looking to push for a 50 mile PR, you can do it on this course.
The entire course is paved so this is a great one for your road shoes. There is a minimal amount of elevation gain as you come into Buckley from South Prairie, but the course is relatively flat other than that. And you get to take advantage of this downhill section after you turn-around in Buckley. There are plenty of sights to see on this scenic trip from Puyallup to Buckley and back. Secluded paved trails, unique bridges, rivers and waterfalls are just some of the sights.
This is a long run and luckily there is plenty of trail access from the nearby roads so you are never hung out to dry if you end up needing assistance.
