This fall is going to be extra golden. 💛

Walla Trails and Community is partnering with to bring back The Golden 6 Hour VIRTUAL, and starting in 2027, Cielo Running will host *both* the in-person and virtual Golden 6 Hour.

Much more to come but for now, we are just excited to share as Walla Trails comes to a close and continues to soar.

Words are tough right now regarding the 10th year of Twilight 12 Hour (lack of sleep + emotional hangover), but Ben Wentz Photography did an amazing job capturing this special year.

Let's just say that the night-time running ranch magic was at an all time high. ✨♥️

WALLA WALLA 6 HOUR PHOTO ARE READY and did an incredible job capturing Walla Trails and Community's last year hosting this all women's event in Walla Walla.

The energy from volunteers and partners was amazing on April 11. A special shout out to the & for bringing the fun at the aid station, for the coveted hats, for the beautiful medals, and to local partners for their donations and support for the past 6 years.

Walla Trails and Community/Gretchen Walla have the honor of sharing that Walla Walla 6 Hour will continue under local race director Shannon Hoehna with - Shannon rearranged her spring break plans to help on race day, and showed she is the perfect person to take over. Shannon knew many runners, volunteers, and local partners and was gracious with her conversations while still jumping into action on multiple fronts.

All and all, it could not have been a better day to transition Walla Walla 6 Hour to its new home.

Things got STRANGE at Aid Station 1/5 at Chuckanut 50k this year!

A huge thank you to friends who agreed to help 500+ runners dressed up as Eleven, Hellfire Club, and Demogorgons. Also, thank you to the HAM radio operators, medical team, and crew/spectators for putting up with our Strange shenanigans. We had a blast and particularly enjoyed not having to pack up wet gear from Aid 1 => Aid 5 this year. 🤪

Congrats to all the runners who toed the line and to and for another incredible race held in our beloved Bellingham. ❤️

Giving our favorite golden loop one last go...

A week from today - Tuesday, March 24 - registration for the The Golden 6 Hour will open. It will be a low key event like Twilight 12 Hour - $45, potluck with fall favorites, tally your own loops, and a cool prize for the person who does the most amount of loops. There will also be a prize for best Golden costume, and each runner and volunteer will receive a raffle to win a Golden 6 Hour hoodie. Those should be out in the world, not in a storage room.

Following 6 hours on top of Blewett Pass will be a post-race potluck at , with Walla Trails providing the main dish (TBD). Nothing fancy - just come eat and celebrate/cheers seven amazing years of getting loopy. Not able to run the race but want to join the dinner? Heck yeah - bring a dish to share and a donation for Penny, the owner of Flying Horseshoe Ranch.

If this event is cancelled due to smoke or snow (because either is possible), there are no refunds but 50% will be donated to Flying Horseshoe Ranch. We owe a lot to Penny and her family - Walla Trails would not exist had Penny said no to Twilight 12 Hour 10 years ago.

So mark your calendars for 🍂October 10🍂 for a larch party!
