Registration for our Nov 2 Bellingham Trail Marathon and Half presented by Altra Running opens tomorrow, April 3! Join us for this popular late season race featuring Lake Padden and Chuckanut Mountain! http://www.bellinghamtrailmarathon.com/

The marathon is a stunning mix of trail running in Bellingham with lots of tough climbs on single track trails, as well as fast interurban trails. The race has approximately 5,000 feet of climbing and connects two of the most popular and scenic trail systems in the area, Lake Padden and Chuckanut Mountain. Runners will enjoy lake and forest views through Padden Park and expansive views of the city of Bellingham, the Cascade Mountain range, and Bellingham Bay from Chuckanut Ridge.

The Bellingham Half Marathon is really special: it is a point-to-point exploration of Bellingham's Chuckanut Mountain and Lake Padden. It begins by running up Fragrance Lake Trail to the notorious Chinscraper and along the super technical and scenic Ridge Trail with views of the Cascades, city of Bellingham, and Bellingham Bay. From the ridge, you'll descend on some sweet single track to the Interurban Trail, hit up a little road on your way to Lake Padden, and finish with fast trails around Lake Padden to a catered post race meal and race festivities!
