10K-Läufe in der Nähe von Port Townsend

The Spruce Railroad Run/Walk begins at the Spruce Railroad Trailhead on East Beach Road, near Lake Crescent outside Port Angeles, Washington, within Olympic National Park. This modest Saturday-morning event in early October offers 5K and 10K distances, welcoming both runners and walkers. A virtual option is also available for those preferring to participate remotely, without crossing the Lake Crescent course. Both in-person distances follow an out-and-back route on the Olympic Discovery Trail, leading participants away from and then back to the starting trailhead. The course traces the edge of Lake Crescent and is categorized as a road race, though its environment resembles a park trail more than an urban street. The participant count is expected between 100 and 500, with a uniform registration fee for both distances and race-day sign-ups permitted for the 5K and 10K.

The Poulsbo Half Marathon & 10k begins and ends at Liberty Bay Waterfront Park in Poulsbo, Washington. Participants can select either a half marathon or a 10k, with both races following a loop course through the city’s Norwegian-themed downtown, known as “Little Norway.” The course winds through downtown Poulsbo before heading back to the waterfront park. The event is chip-timed, and all participants receive a shirt, a finisher’s medal, and complimentary race photo downloads.

The Clallam County Turkey Trot begins at Hollywood Beach in Port Angeles on Thanksgiving morning, offering 5K and 10K distances. This is a casual run-or-walk event, open to all ages and paces. The start is at 9:00 AM, with bib pickup at the start line in the hour before the race. Both distances follow out-and-back routes on the Olympic Discovery Trail. Participants will head out from the beach area and return along the same path. The event benefits food banks throughout Clallam County, including those in Sequim, Port Angeles, and Forks. Families are welcome, with strollers permitted and festive outfits encouraged, contributing to a community holiday atmosphere rather than a strictly competitive race.

The Jamestown Glow Run/Walk is a dusk 5K and 10K starting at the Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe in Sequim, Washington. Participants begin around 4:30 pm as daylight fades; every in-person runner and walker requires a headlamp or flashlight. Both distances follow out-and-back routes on the Olympic Discovery Trail. The event features a glow-run setup with lights displayed along the course. Headlamps are available as a giveaway prize. A virtual option allows participants to complete the race remotely.
