Hood Hundred
100 miles on Mt. Hood’s home trails
August 3-4, 2024
100 miles of Mt. Hood grandeur!
Welcome to Hood Hundred presented by Speedland, a 100 mile mountain trail run on much of Mt. Hood’s most diverse and scenic terrain! Featuring a super crew-accessible lollipop-style course with 17,700’ of ascent and 17,700’ descent, Hood Hundred offers a truly epic and memorable mountain trail endurance run experience.
Staged at Mt. Hood Meadows, a locally owned and operated ski area, Hood Hundred combines equal parts trail running community vibes and professional event production, where we celebrate the sport of trail running, honor the mountain and celebrate each other’s accomplishments under the volcano’s summit at the finish line.
Land Acknowledgement: We honor and recognize that we gather for this event on the traditional lands of the Molalla, Kalapuyan, Chinookan Clackamas, Wasco and Wishram, and Northern Paiute peoples and other Sahaptin speakers who have occupied and stewarded these lands for countless generations.
