2025 Orcas Island 50K & 25K

Race Overview -- TO REGISTER SCROLL DOWN & CLICK CHOOSE ONE

The Orcas Island 50K & 25K races are unique in the trail running world, with old-growth forests, tough climbs, and spectacular views of surrounding islands, mountains, and Puget Sound - but what truly sets it apart is the chance to hang out all weekend on a gorgeous island with your trail runner friends. The trails used vary from smooth and fast to rooty, rocky and steep but always amazing! And now with switch to a June weekend and a move of the start/finish area to the beautiful, seaside Doe Bay Resort the races will be even more fun than ever before!   

We highly recommend booking your lodging or camping at Doe Bay and make a long weekend out of your trip to Orcas. Spending three nights or more on the island, especially at Doe Bay, where you can just relax and take full advantage of all that Orcas offers is really the way to make the most of your race weekend. Orcas isn't the easiest place to get to so why not stay awhile really soak in the island vibes? And to sweeten the deal if you stay more than 3 nights at Doe Bay each additional night will be 50% off! See the lodging section of the race website for more details. 

In addition to the lodging and camping that Doe Bay offers we'll have have a more basic camping option also at Doe Bay called Field Camping. Field camping is a more basic option where it's more like camping at a festival where there will be an assigned area at the resort where you can setup your tent anywhere in that assigned area and there will be bathrooms nearby but no other amenities provided (other than the general resort and race amenities that are available to all event attendees). Parking for those with a field camping reservation will be off-site, so after you drop off your camping stuff at the resort you'll then park at the parking area and take a short shuttle ride back to the resort. To reserve a field camping site you can do so when you register for the race or if you've already registered and you want to add field camping we can do that too just email james@rainshadowrunning.com. The cost will be $100 per tent which includes three nights of camping (Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights). 

Note: Staying at Doe Bay Resort is NOT required for participation in the race. We just recommend it because it's cool! :)
