About this race

The Lastest Not Fastest™ is a last-person-standing race where runners complete a 4.13-mile loop on flat trails around Hamilton Island in the Columbia River Gorge, departing on the hour every hour — if you take 60 minutes or longer to finish a loop, you're done. The race continues until just one runner remains.
