Race Info
The Kirkland 5K covers 5 kilometers entirely on neighborhood roads surrounding Juanita Beach Park, sharing its start and finish with the Kirkland Half Marathon on the shore of Lake Washington. It runs the same Sunday morning in May as the half marathon, giving runners a shorter distance option for the same race weekend.
