Cascade Crest 100 Mile Endurance Run

Cascade Crest is a challenging 100 mile trail run through the Central Cascades of Washington State. The course currently runs as a clockwise loop from the Easton Fire Station. The race starts at 9:00 am and there is an overall time limit of 34 hours.

Randy Gehrke founded and directed the race from 1999 through 2005. Charlie Crissman directed the race from 2007 through 2012. Their efforts have established Cascade Crest as one of the premier 100 milers in the country.

In 2016, the course was enhanced, wrapping around and over Blowout Mtn. This change added roughly 3.2 miles and 1000′ of climbing to the original course.

The course record on the current (longer) course is 18:03:00, set in 2018 by 3 time winner Jesse Lang of Richland, WA.

The course record on the original course is 17:56:50 set in 2014 by Seth Swanson of Missoula, MT.

The women’s record is 19:25:56 by Alissa St Laurant of Edmonton, Alberta; set in 2015 on the original course.

The fastest women’s time on the current, longer course is 21:16:26, set by Yitka Winn in 2019.
