Join us as we bring back a cherished Issaquah tradition! The Issaquah Rotary Club’s Run With the Fishes is back—featuring a 5K, 10K, and a 1K Kids’ Fun Run—and we can’t wait to run, cheer, and celebrate with you once again.
For more than 26 years, the Rotary Run was a beloved part of Salmon Days, bringing runners of all ages through the heart of Issaquah as we celebrate the Fall return of the salmon to the Issaquah Creek. After a hiatus since 2019, we’re thrilled to announce the return of the race the weekend before Salmon Days—with a brand new location, a new course, and a fun new twist: a challenge to set the record for the most participants in fish costumes!
