San Juan Island Half
The San Juan Island Half takes place in Friday Harbor, Washington. Organized by Orca Running, this event offers a course located on the island where runners experience views of the sea and sky. Participants can choose between two different distances:
- 13.1 miles (Half Marathon)
- 0.4 miles (Kid's Race)
The half marathon course is designed to highlight the natural scenery of the island. The start and finish area is located near Pear Point Road. Because of the location, the event is positioned as an opportunity for participants to visit the island for a weekend.
The event includes a specific race for children aged 12 and under. This 0.4 mile route is held at Jackson Beach, which serves as the finish line area for the main race. Children participating in this distance receive a bib number and run through the official finish archway to receive a medal.
Registration fees vary by distance. The half marathon requires registration several months in advance, while the kid's race remains open for entry closer to the event date. Participants interested in multiple Orca Running events have the option to look into bundled registration packages. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
