Twisting and turning on mostly single track trails, the Little Backyard Adventure Races celebrates the City of Olympia’s recently preserved L.B.A. neighborhood forest park. Our Little Backyard Adventure Races are inviting you to loop through the lush canopy of ferns, moss and forest. These races are a great introduction to trail running, with a course that will push even the strongest of runners.
Each ~4 mile loop has about 200ft of elevation gain, a couple fun hills and technical trails full of twists and turns. Under the cover of trees and around the famous LBA woods, this course will continue to impress with each loop. And oh boy are there loops, so many loops.
