Description

It's Loop The ‘Lupe, the only obstacle course in Seattle city limits, and we're back for our ninth year! Seattle's best 5K obstacle course fun run will take place at Walt Hundley Playfield in West Seattle on Saturday, June 7th. Here's what's in store for 2025:

• FOR TOP ATHLETES--OUR ELITE WAVE: Hey, triathletes, Spartan Racers and Tough Mudders! The Loop is a great warmup for your race season. The first wave of Loop the 'Lupe is an "Elite Wave" for racers age 16+ to increase the level of competition. This wave features a whopping nine obstacles on our 1K "loop" for a total of 45 over the 5K race! NOTE: The two additional obstacles featured in the Elite Wave will be shut down 40 minutes after the start of the event. Elite racers still on the course will complete their event on the seven-obstacle Family Wave course. 
• OUR MOST POPULAR CHOICE--THE FAMILY WAVE: So, you're ready for all the ninja challenges (wall-climbing, mud-crawling, and more), but not ready to run with the elites? The 7-obstacle Family Wave is just for you, suitable for all experience levels! 
• OPTIONS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY: We'll have the 5K run/walk (no obstacles), the Senior Saunter walk (100% flat, no obstacles), and the Youth Dash (once around our 1K loop with 7 obstacles & adult supervision). 
• GET THE BEST DEAL--TEAM DISCOUNTS!: You'll get discounts on groups of 4-10 when you register all at once, and even bigger discounts for groups of 11 or more!
• SUPPORT A GOOD CAUSE: This event is a major annual fundraiser for Our Lady of Guadalupe Church. Your registration and donations help with some important social outreach work--support for 1,700 local people in need annually with rent/mortgage assistance, food, medicine, and more; a prison re-entry program; and help for refugee/immigrant communities, too. Racers who help us fundraise can earn prizes, too!
