Race Description: This race marks the end of the 2013 Bellingham Trail Running Series! Which means we will have a rollicking good time before, during, and especially after the race! We will have live music from The Pine Hearts a fun bluegrass band and local beer. I said we'd have a good time, didn't I?!
Series Awards:Awards for top points earners from the trail series will be honored and receive their awards at this race. The ceremony will be at 1:30pm at Larrabee State Park. Winners who cannot make the ceremony will ahve their award mailed to them. We strongly encourage award winners to come to the awards ceremony!
30K: The 30k is a Bellingham classic, also known as the "Middle 18" for those runners who are familiar with the Chuckanut 50k. It has a little of everything and will test runners skill on narrow and technical single track trails, long climbs and descents, a shorter steep climb, with some beautiful views from the Chuckanut Ridge, Fragrance Lake, and Lost Lake Trail. Course has about 5,000 feet of elevation gain. Scroll down for a Garmin map.
12K: The 12k will challenge runners to a good climb up Fragrance Lake Trail and onto what we fondly call "Chinscraper" (Black Diamond) for the last 3/4 of a mile of the climb: a steep relentless climb, rewarding runners with a view from the top of Chucknut Mountain at Cyrus Overlook. The 12k will then descend for the last half of the race, a pure up and down course! The 12k has about 1,600 feet of elevation gain. Scroll down for a Garmin map.
