BURT 100

The BURT is a trail running event that harkens back to the days when trail and ultra running was a niche sport for peculiar people who liked testing their limits. We offer distances of 55 kilometers, 110 kilometers, and 100(ish) miles. This event focuses on community, shared experience, and a love of the trails – largely without the accouterments of modern endurance events.

Runners…
– Start and finish at a “finish tree”
– Contribute snacks to aid stations
– Often volunteer to mark and/or sweep the course
– Compete to win – sure – but focus on working together to get everyone “across the tree”

The BURT course is a 55 kilometer loop that links up Bainbridge Island’s best public (and some private) trail networks. Each year, the BURT committee looks to unlock new trail connectors – making each year’s BURT better than the last. And the BURT always takes place in February. The weather should be atrocious, but we always seem to hit a (frustratingly) perfect reprieve.

Join us at this year’s edition of the BURT! Have some fun. Support the trails. And join our community of peculiar people who like testing their limits.
