The Green River Marathon, a volunteer-run event in Kent, WA, offers a flat and fast course with picturesque views. Runners enjoy a scenic journey along the Green River Trail, culminating in a finish with views of Seattle, Puget Sound, and the Olympic Mountains. This community-focused race emphasizes a low-key, friendly atmosphere, and historically operates with no entry fee, instead relying on donations to support Northwest Harvest.
