The Freedom 50

The Freedom 50 Ultramarathon, held annually on Memorial Day Weekend in Puyallup, Washington, offers 50-mile and 50k race options. Starting and finishing at Diamond Detail in downtown Puyallup, runners traverse the scenic, mostly paved Foothills Trail with minimal elevation changes. The 50k route heads toward South Prairie, while the 50-mile extends to the edge of Enumclaw, featuring views like the White River bridge.

Aid stations stocked with food, water, and electrolytes appear every 4-8 miles, supporting participants throughout the 15-hour time limit. The event provides a flat, fast course ideal for first ultramarathons or personal records, with unique finisher medals and special perks for runners.
