Beat the Blerch

Website

Beat The Blerch is a unique running event held in Carnation, Washington, about 35 minutes from Seattle, at King County’s Tolt MacDonald Park. The race offers multiple distances including a 5K, 10K, half marathon, and full marathon. The course is a flat, out-and-back gravel trail that meanders through lush evergreen and mossy forests along the scenic Snoqualmie Valley Trail.

The atmosphere is fun and lighthearted, inspired by The Oatmeal’s comic about running, with aid stations featuring electrolyte drinks, gels, Nutella sandwiches, and birthday cake. Nearby attractions include strawberry farms and pumpkin patches, adding to the event’s charm. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
