Orca Half Marathon

Orca Half Marathon is a scenic, flat half along West Seattle’s shoreline, starting at Lincoln Park and finishing at the Don Armeni Boat Launch. The point-to-point course includes a couple of short out-and-backs, with views of downtown Seattle, Blake Island, Vashon Island, and Puget Sound. An Orca 8-Miler is offered on the weekend.

The event is USATF-certified and cupless to reduce waste, with aid stations offering water, Tailwind, and GU. Swag includes a shirt and medal designed by a Tlingit artist. Proceeds support Whale Scout, and a virtual option is available for those who cannot attend in person. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
