Orca Half Marathon
The Orca Half Marathon is a scenic, USATF-certified half marathon held in Seattle, Washington, along the shores of West Seattle. The point-to-point course starts at Lincoln Park and finishes at Don Armeni Boat Launch, featuring a mostly flat route with two small out-and-back sections early on and a longer one near the end. Runners enjoy stunning views of downtown Seattle, Blake Island, Vashon Island, and Puget Sound, with the possibility of spotting orca pods.
The event spans two days and includes an 8-mile race, a virtual half marathon, and charity bib options. Aid stations provide water, electrolytes, and gels, and the race promotes environmental sustainability with cupless hydration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
