Capitol Peak Mega Fat Ass

The Capitol Peak Mega Fat Ass is an annual running event held in Capitol State Forest, Olympia, WA, featuring two distance options: 17 miles and 34 miles. This low-key race emphasizes self-sufficiency, with minimal aid stations providing only water, and no awards or t-shirts. Participants are encouraged to be prepared for challenging winter conditions.

The event serves as a fundraiser for the Friends of Capitol Forest and supports the South Sound Mobile Search and Rescue. Post-race soup is provided, and additional donations are welcomed on race day. The event promotes camaraderie among runners while supporting local trail maintenance efforts.
