Course
Out-and-back races from Tacoma Narrows Airport across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge — "Galloping Gertie" — with views over Puget Sound to Point Defiance, Vashon Island, Mount Rainier and the Olympics. The half marathon crosses the bridge and continues through the old growth forest of the Key Peninsula; the 10K turns after the bridge and the 5K at its midpoint.
