About the Event

The Kirk-Wood Half Marathon
Saturday, August 22nd

Get ready to experience one of the fastest half marathons in the Pacific Northwest, right in the heart of King County.

The Kirk-Wood Half Marathon is a beautiful point-to-point journey that starts at Northwest University in Kirkland, WA and carries you all the way to the finish line at Wilmot Gateway Park in Woodinville, WA. From start to finish, you’ll cruise along some of the region’s most iconic pedestrian trails, including the Kirkland Cross Corridor Trail, Eastrail, and the Sammamish River Trail.

This course was built for rhythm and flow. With a net downhill of over 300 feet, runners can expect a smooth, fast profile that’s perfect for chasing a personal best, or simply soaking in the miles at a comfortable, confidence-boosting pace.

Whether you're aiming to set a PR or looking for an approachable, well-supported half marathon with incredible vibes, the Kirk-Wood Half delivers.

Fast. Scenic. Effortless.
From Kirkland to Woodinville, this is your run.
