THE ROUTE
Our primary 5k route is in Point Defiance Park along Five Mile Drive. The start/finish is just behind the gate where the road is closed to traffic. The route winds along the closed road past two scenic overlooks before runners reach a turnaround point at roughly two miles into the run. Runners are then guided onto a fire road trail that rejoins with Five Mile Drive for a rolling downhill and then an uphill sweep toward the finish.

DIRECTIONS
Parking is located in the upper lot at Owen Beach. Once parked, walk up the paved trail to the right. The start/finish line is located just beyond the gate where the road is closed to traffic.

All speeds are welcome, but a sense of urgency and a finish time of under an hour is requested.
