Race Info
The Light at the End of the Tunnel Marathon starts near Hyak at Snoqualmie Pass and finishes on a point-to-point course that drops about 1,000 feet. Roughly two miles of the route run through the Snoqualmie Tunnel, a former railroad tunnel on the Palouse to Cascades Trail built in 1912-1914 and closed to trains since the mid-1980s; runners wear headlamps for the crossing. The race was founded in 2007 and is a Boston Marathon qualifier, with a half marathon held the same day. The same organizer, Tunnel Marathons, now also runs a Tunnel Vision Marathon in August and a Tunnel Light Marathon in September on the same trail corridor.
