Celebrating 54 years of friendly competition in the South Sound. Whether it's our signature 12k route with challenging hills, spectacular water views, the occasional forest critter and trees that touch the sky - or our fast 5k route, be assured that you are a part of something bigger than yourself. YOU are the fabric of Tacoma and the South Sound. YOU are our community. YOU are carriers of tradition.

And for our younger athletes, we happily offer the Sound to Narrows 2k race or the ever-competitive 20-yard Diaper Dash for the wee ones.

The annual Twisted Cider 5K & 12k run and walk is coming to the City of University Place! How ‘bout them apples!

We hope you’ll join us for the Twisted Cider 5K & 12K event! Runners and walkers will start and finish from the Curran Apple Orchard Park meandering around the quiet neighborhoods of University Place with glimpses of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and the Puget Sound. With gentle rolling hills along with flat and fast sections, you’re going to enjoy these courses.

Bring the whole family! The Kids 1K is a fun way to get the kids (12 and under) to participate! Parents can run with their kids and do not have to register for this distance. The course will be an out-and-back along Sound View Drive.

After the race, enjoy some snacks and wander the beautiful grounds of the park. (But please do not pick the apples. We need to save these juicy treats for the Annual Cider Squeeze!)

STOMP OUT THE STIGMA is all about raising awareness of mental wellness and eliminating the stigma surrounding mental illness. Join us in the fastest, flat 5k route in the area or a nice 1 mile race around Waughop Lake. Parking will be easy at the Pierce College Fort Steilacoom campus with a short walk down a trail to Fort Steilacoom Park. The 5k race starts by the lake where you will fly through a flat course at Fort Steilacoom Park and finish back at the entrance of the lake. The 1mile race starts at the entrance of Waughop Lake and takes you on a scenic lap around the lake. Both routes are mostly paved with a short area that is dirt/gravel. This 5k race is chip timed. The entry includes a race shirt if you register by 7/21. Finishing medals will be given to the first 200 finishers. Don't miss the chance to be a part of this great event!

Sorry… no strollers or dogs at the event because of the insurance restrictions.
