Green River Marathon : June 05, 2027
The Green River Marathon is an annual point-to-point running event held in early June. The 2027 edition is the 31st running. The course runs from South Kent along the Green River and Interurban trails and finishes at Alki in Seattle in front of Spud's Fish and Chips.
Distances offered include:
- Marathon (26.2 miles)
- Half Marathon
- Relay
- 50K
The course is described as very flat with two short hills late in the run. The final miles provide views of Seattle and Puget Sound toward the Olympic Mountains. Support along the route is limited; an aid station has been noted at about 6.55 miles out. Runners should plan for carrying their own fluids or making personal arrangements when needed.
The event is organized by volunteers and has operated as a free run supported by donations that have benefited Northwest Harvest in past years. Results from past years are published online and the event maintains an archive of results. Very limited return transportation to the start has been offered by request in past editions, and carpooling between runners has been suggested for return trips.
