Latest Race Updates

Welcome to the 2010 Race. This year we have added online registration and will be offering an optional long sleeve technical shirt with race info printed on front for $18. We may be selling the shirts at the race if any are left, but quantities are limited. We can only guarantee a shirt to those runners that register and purchase a shirt online.

Note: we will not be able to exchange shirt sizes on the day of the race.

You will still be able to register day of race. The links for the registration are found below.

Race Information:

Online registration is available starting around the first of December until 2 days before the race. Please use this registration link. Day of race registration is also available at the Samish Park Day Lodge 8:45-9:45am.

Race starts at 10:00 am.

Course: Races start/finish at Samish Park (I-5, exit 246). The course follows paved, low-traffic county roads around the Lake. Although basically flat, there are a few rolling sections. The 6.5 mile race is once around, the 13.1 mile (half-marathon) is twice around, plus an extra 0.1 mile off the Nulle Road. The course will be marked with mile markers. The roads are not closed to traffic.

Entry fee: GBRC members-free

Note: High School & under fees are only available on day of race registration. Online registration fees for all non-members will be $10.00 or $8.00 regardless of age.

Prizes for overall men/women's winners in each race 10 year age group awards.

Parking Information

Due to limited parking at Lake Samish Park, carpooling is strongly advised. Also, a shuttle service to the start will be provided from the Park & Ride at exit 246. There is no parking allowed on the road along the route. Those who violate parking restrictions face being ticketed or towed (per park manger, Steve LeCocq).

Water and Gatorade will be provided on the course

Yummy post race refreshments and awards in a warm, dry environment!
