Defiance 50k

The Defiance 50K is a scenic trail running event hosted by the Tacoma City Marathon Association, taking place in the picturesque Point Defiance Park. Participants can choose from multiple distances: 50K, 30K, 15K, or a 3-person relay. The course features a 9.75-mile loop through old-growth forests, offering stunning views of the Puget Sound.

Runners will experience a mix of single-track trails and gentle hills, with aid stations available throughout the course. All finishers receive a commemorative medal, and a portion of the proceeds supports the Humane Society of Tacoma & Pierce County. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
