Beat The Blerch is a 10k/half/full marathon founded by The Oatmeal. The race was inspired by this comic: http://theoatmeal.com/comics/running

There will be cake at every aid station, infinite supplies of Nutella, and Blerches in costume who may or may not be luring you to couches throughout the race. This marathon is your chance to figuratively (and literally), Beat The Blerch.

This has been some crazy weather. This is Tolt McDonald park — the race start for Beat The Blerch in Carnation.
