Runners will experience lush forests, perched lakes, rising sand dunes and the historic lighthouse while running single track, fire roads and beaches. This is the perfect event for a weekend getaway.

Narcisa Finnila - 2025 LOS
The 2024 Clint Eastwood was run in the worst conditions we've experienced at the venue. We had it colder, and we've had heavier rain, but not throughout the event, sporadically from start to finish.
Given those conditions, the 43-hour total achieved by Narcisa Finnila is quite something. The track deteriorated throughout Saturday and into the early hours of Sunday morning and credit must be given to the last 16 runners who managed to dig in a little and get a strong group over the 24 hour mark.
Not only is Narcisa our first female to take the overall win, it's also her third win in a row (currently . For some perspective, 43 hours bests the results of the first three Clint Eastwood events, won by Kevin Muller (x2) and Ryan Crawford.
Narcisa had plenty left in the tank and was aiming for a 52-hour PB, but, as ever, the LOS winner is the only athlete on the day left wondering how far they could of gone.
We can't wait for 2026!
