About
The Lake Washington Half Marathon in Kirkland, Washington, is a USATF-certified half marathon (13.1 miles / 21.1 km) on a loop course, held on October 17, 2026, with an 8:00 a.m. start and designed for experienced runners.
Starting and finishing at Juanita Beach Park in Kirkland, the race offers great views of the Lake Washington shoreline and passes through the city's lively neighborhoods. Well-placed aid stations are stocked with water, energy gels and electrolytes. All races are cupless, so runners bring their own hydration system or use a reusable cup provided by the organizers. Competition is strong, with overall awards for the top three male, female and nonbinary finishers based on official time, plus recognition in five-year age groups. Every finisher receives a T-shirt and a medal.
