Saint Helens周辺の10Kレース

The Longview Early Edition Rotary Harvest Classic begins at the Life Works building on New York Street in Longview, Washington, offering fall-morning races for runners, walkers, school teams, and young children. Participants can choose from a 5K run/walk or a 10K run, both starting in the morning. Additionally, there is a High School Challenge 5K and a free quarter-mile Pee Wee Fun Run for children aged 9 and under. This event has benefited the community since 1980, with its fundraising efforts directed toward hunger relief in the Longview area. The 5K and 10K courses are flat, fast, and USA Track & Field-certified, suitable for those aiming for a personal best or enjoying a leisurely walk. The route passes through downtown Longview and by Lake Sacajawea, with the RaceJoy app providing historical context about the city. The High School Challenge features cross-country teams competing for team plaques and individual ribbons. The Pee Wee Fun Run includes games and activities for children, coordinated by the Child & Adolescent Clinic. Timing is managed using RFID chips on bibs, and race-day weather is typically mild, often ranging from the low 40s to mid 50s.

The 12th Annual race series unfolds across the picturesque landscapes of Barbour Woods and Haystack Mountain, offering a challenging and scenic experience. This trail event provides special access to private paths for its grueling half marathon, alongside options that traverse Beech Hill and wind past the historic Killarney Bridge. Runners will navigate a diverse course featuring a mixture of single and double track, carriage roads, and a flat stretch of railroad bed. Expect intense single track leading to the summit of Norfolk's iconic Haystack Mountain Tower, descending on carriage paths and gladed wetlands like the Swamp Trail. This is a cupless event, and while dogs are not allowed on the course, finishers can enjoy a free slice of pizza and beverages from Norbrook Farm Brewery.
