Little Backyard Adventure

About the Event

Twisting and turning on mostly single track trails, the Little Backyard Adventure Races celebrates the City of Olympia’s recently preserved L.B.A. neighborhood forest park. Our Little Backyard Adventure Races are inviting you to loop through the lush canopy of ferns, moss and forest. These races are a great introduction to trail running, with a course that will push even the strongest of runners.

Each ~4 mile loop has about 200ft of elevation gain, a couple fun hills and technical trails full of twists and turns. Under the cover of trees and around the famous LBA woods, this course will continue to impress with each loop. And oh boy are there loops, so many loops.

Course:

All runners run the same loop. The race begins and ends at the main LBA park shelter. The trail encircles the park area and ballfields but most of the course is on single track in the woods just south of the ballfields. You'll be surprised how twisted and fun that course is going to be.

We will have clear signage, trail markings and course markings on all intersections on race day. Marking tape will be located before and after each intersection. Consult the course map for exact details for the course.
