We had such positive feedback from our 2021 participants that we've decided to stick with our new and improved 5k/10k course - with a few tweaks to make it run even more smoothly! This route does a great job showcasing the beauty of the area we live in and we're pretty sure you are going to love it!
* Runners will take off towards Totem Park. You are going to love the view!
* After a quick run through Old Town on 2nd St you will head up to Mukilteo Blvd. This part will look familiar but you won't be on the Boulevard for very long. Promise!
* You'll enjoy gorgeous views of the water, ferry and islands as you run DOWN Mukilteo Lane with a turn towards Edgewater Beach.
* Salt air and gentle breezes will greet you as you run a short out and back on a paved path along the beach. This and the run down Mukilteo Lane are our very favorite parts of our new route!
* Back onto Mukilteo Lane for the flat lead up to the only significant (but short) uphill of the course - and we broke that hill up a bit with a turn down 2nd to let you catch your breath.
* 5k runners will turn into the lower Rosehill parking lot to triumphantly cross the finish line while 10k runners will continue on to complete a second loop of this gorgeous course.
Be sure to wear your timing chip pinned between your knee and hip on either side for an accurate time.
NOTE: ONLY SINGLE STROLLERS are allowed on this course due to route restrictions. Those lining up with double width strollers will be asked to return to their cars rather than participate in the event.
