Start is at the north end of the Kirkland Corridor Trail. 120th Pl NE and NE 124th St.  (Start map link) There is an LA Fitness where you can park next to the Shell gas station.  We will travel south on the trail to where we used to start at the BMW location and turn around, a double out and back for the marathon.  There is also a short course option where you go north on the trail 1.5 miles and then return to start/finish and go south 1.8 miles to just past the frog and return to the start/finish.  With this option you would run it twice for the half marathon and four times for the full marathon.  This allows you to see people more often and access aid at the start finish.  There is also a porta pottie 0.5 miles north on the trail.

Expectations:
In order to keep everyone healthy and safe please follow these expectations:
We will have a group start at 8:00 AM.  If you want to start at the early start at 7 AM, bring a headlamp or flashlight as it will be dark.
None of these courses are closed.  So please follow the traffic signals and be safe.  Also, the course will be lightly marked so follow the directions or run with a friend who knows where they are going.
We should all be finished by 3 PM.  We will collect times when you finish.
 I will have a wood-al (medal) for you when you finish. Run and have fun!
