WAY TOO COOL 2025 has a NEW date!!

Welcome, Runners!

Way Too Cool 50K Endurance Run welcomes you to the 35th annual running on Saturday, September 6, 2025 at 8 A.M. We are excited have this epic event later in the year, with better weather!!

This race has become the most sought after 50K in the United States for veterans and novices alike. The breathtaking trails, spirited aid stations, amazing views and pure fun, make this an adventure you won't want to miss.

For 2025, we are adding a shorter course, the Way Too Cool 17K!!

After your run, kick back and relax as you enjoy delicious & hearty fare. Warm your soul with a cup of delicious soup. Finally, satisfy your sweet tooth with our signature frog cupcake!

A special thanks to all of our sponsors for their continued support and generosity. Thanks to the two hundred volunteers who help make this race weekend possible.

Heartfelt thanks and sincere gratitude to the Western States Endurance Run Foundation, Western States Trail Foundation, Robie Foundation and the California Forest Foundation for their help in clearing and maintaining the trails to afford each of us an opportunity to run and enjoy.

I look forward to seeing you in Cool, CA on Saturday, September 6, 2025!

Enjoy the Journey,
