Welcome to the Slurpee-Fueled Suffering
Ever looked at a 7-Eleven roller grill and thought, "I could run 100 miles on those taquitos"? No? Just us?
The 24/7Eleven is not your standard trail ultra. There are no sweeping alpine vistas or pristine singletrack here. This is an urban scavenger hunt through the heart of Clark County. Your mission is simple but soul-crushing: Visit as many 7-Eleven locations in the county as possible within a 24-hour window.
The Rules of the Road
• The Clock: You have 24 hours. Start at Foot Traffic, finish at Foot Traffic, but the clock doesn't stop for brain freezes.
• The Proof: Every "Summit" (store visit) must be documented with a geo-tagged photo of you and the store frontage.
• The Fuel: This is the kicker. You are strictly prohibited from consuming any calories not purchased inside a 7-Eleven during the event. If it didn’t come off a roller, out of a fountain, or from a crinkly plastic bag, it’s a DNF.
• The Route: Total "Choose Your Own Adventure." Map it out, bridge the gaps, and try to avoid the Vancouver traffic.
Why Do This?
Because the Vantucky Trailrunners believe that "adventure" is a mindset. Whether we’re hitting the mud at Whipple Creek or hitting the pavement on Fourth Plain, we do it with heart, humor, and a questionable amount of processed sodium.

PDX Recovers is more than a 5K. It’s a chance to heal together. In a city known as Bridge City, this race connects running with recovery, neighbors with neighbors, and hope with action. It’s not just a fundraiser. It’s a movement—people training, walking, running, and rebuilding their lives together.
This event is hosted by Union Gospel Mission of Portland, an organization that has served people experiencing homelessness, hunger, addiction, and abuse in the Portland community for nearly 100 years.
Through programs that provide meals, showers, shelter, outreach and long-term recovery for men, women, and children, Union Gospel Mission Union Gospel Mission offers life-changing pathways toward stability and hope. Proceeds from the race will help support these programs and the individuals and families working to rebuild their lives.

Come and enjoy the 'Run Like the Wind' races in Westport, WA, by entering a 5K run/walk, a 10K run or a Half Marathon run on the scenic Westport Light Trail and beyond. Our courses are rolling and fairly flat. All the races will start at the marina, go down and around the Fishermen's Memorial and then head for the paved trail around Half Moon Bay and through Westhaven State Park. A little farther down the trail, the 5K folks will turn around and head back to the starting point. Those running the 10K will appreciate the ocean views as they continue south on the trail and then run around the Westport Lighthouse before returning to the marina. After running around the lighthouse, the Half Marathon participants will follow the signs to the beach where there will be 5.7 miles of running in the sand before returning to the marina. It's an event for everyone and truly a "wind-in-your-hair" experience!

What Is OUTLAST?
OUTLAST is a 6-hour trail endurance challenge where runners complete a 5K every hour, on the hour. Each lap must be finished within the hour to stay in the event. If you finish early, you rest until the next round. Miss a lap, and you’re out.
Complete all six rounds, and you OUTLAST.
This isn't just about speed — it's about pacing, discipline, and mental grit. Whether you're trying to survive all six or win your division, the challenge is the same: show up each hour, push your limits, and stay in it.
Each course is trail-based, with natural terrain, elevation, and unpredictable conditions. You’ll have time between rounds to recover, refuel, and refocus — but not much.
What You Earn:
4 laps = “Grit Earned” patch
5 laps = “Survivor” patch
6 laps = Premium “OUTLAST” medal
All participants receive a premium OUTLAST Tee.
Top male and female with the fastest combined 5K times at each event win the 1st Place OUTLAST award.
Finishers are ranked on the national leaderboard—and the fastest runner across all OUTLAST 6-hour events will be crowned National Champion and take home $1,000.
The 1st Place Male and Female 6-hour champions from each city will earn a spot in the Outlast Championship, where they’ll compete against the best of the best at the end of the Tour, and the 1st place male and female winners take home $1000 each. (This is separate from the national leaderboard prize money.)
By the end of the tour, the top 100 best times nationally will be invited to also compete in the Outlast Championship.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Do I have to run all 6 laps?
Nope. Run as many as you can. If you complete 4 or 5, you'll still earn a patch. Only those who finish all 6 get the OUTLAST medal and leaderboard ranking.
What happens if I don’t finish a lap in time?
You're out. The next lap starts at the top of the next hour, and only those who completed the last lap on time can continue.
How is the race timed?
Each 5K is timed individually. If you complete all 6, your combined time counts toward the local win and national leaderboard.
Are these trail races or road?
Every OUTLAST race is on trail terrain — dirt, rocks, roots, and elevation. Sometimes some pavement and gravel.
Can I walk?
Yes, as long as you finish the 5K within the hour. But some courses are rugged, and time can sneak up on you.
Are there aid stations?
Yes. There will be water, basic hydration, and snacks at the basecamp/loop start. This is a cupless event — bring your own bottle or hydration system.
What should I bring?
Trail shoes, hydration system, layers (weather dependent), fuel between laps, and grit.
Can I setup a tent?
Absolutely, bring your own aid station/tent setup.
Is OUTLAST for beginners?
Yes — if you're mentally tough. You don’t need to be fast, just consistent and ready to suffer a little.
How do I win?
If you finish all 6 laps and have the fastest combined time, you win your division (male/female). Winners are also added to the national leaderboard for a shot at the $1,000 national prize & title.

Ride the Harbor Cycling Event
Saturday, July 25, 2026
Enjoy the challenge of a 7.5 mi, 18 mi, or 52 mi ride through the natural beauty of Grays Harbor County on a perfect summer day (ages 16+). This sweeping journey through forests, farmlands, over rivers and hills has a spectacular finish right on the Pacific coast!
The ride starts in McCleary and finishes in either Westport, Elma or Montesano (depending on your chosen distance).
ALL Riders Must Be Ready to Start at 8 AM.
Event Details:
Ride with a team or as a personal challenge! This is NOT a timed event, so we encourage you to choose a distance that is the best fit for your cycling skill level.
Follow us on Facebook and Strava to stay connected and up to date on important announcements.
WHY WE RIDE
This year we are raising funds for Breast Cancer Prevention!
Grays Harbor County has one of the highest mortality rates in the state of Washington.
We want to eliminate cost as a barrier to care by providing screenings and mammograms to those ladies who fall into the insurance gap. The funds you raise by riding this year will help to ensure EVERY woman in this area will be able to receive a mammogram, no matter their financial status.
Become a Team Captain and receive a FREE Team Captain Jersey ($90 value!)
Have your family, friends and co-workers join you for an amazing ride! Form a team of 5 (including yourself), and you will receive a Captain's Jersey absolutely free.
Please review the team section below for information about creating teams and team discounts.
