The Electric Cookie Run
The Electric Cookie Run is a holiday evening running event at Green Lake Park in Seattle, WA on December 5, 2026. The event offers two distance options that follow one or two loops around Green Lake, with entry fees tiered by date and category. Registration prices listed include discounted early tiers and a current base price.
- 5K : one loop, about 2.8 miles
- 10K : two loops, about 5.6 miles
Participants receive a light up finisher medal and cookies from Seattle bakeries at the finish. The event is cupless, so runners are asked to bring a handheld or small reusable folding cup. Packet pickup is available at Road Runner Sports Seattle prior to the event and on race day. The event benefits Marys Place Seattle, a nonprofit that provides shelter and services for women, children and families.
The race policy notes that entries are non refundable but may be deferred or transferred, youth and older adults can apply for a discount, and walkers are welcome. Dogs and strollers are not allowed on the course, though dogs are permitted near the start and finish areas. Awards are given to the top three male, female, and non binary finishers on gun time plus age group awards in five year increments, and awards must be picked up at the Orca tent.
