SHIRT REVEAL

For our first year running the Lake Sammamish Half, we have pulled out all of the stops to make sure y’all can tell it’s an Orca Running event, now! Our race tee is SO PRETTY, right? Eagles are pretty special here in the Pacific Northwest, and we just KNOW you’ll spy a few while you’re running along the shores of one of our favorite lakes on March 6th. That’s right, folks, it’s an in person event and we cannot WAIT to see you there!

⚡️BONUS: today only, use code SHIRT for $8 off registration. ⚡️

You can feel super great about joining in on this one, too, as we continue to move towards reducing typical race waste by hosting a “cupless” event. BYO containers; and we’ll have huge jugs of Clear Alaskan Glacial Water to fill up from along the way.

Ready to sign up? Good! Visit lakesammamishhalf.com, sign up, and then tag your friends who are looking for a March half marathon to add to their race calendars! 🦅

Hello Runners!

We have fought long and hard to put on a in person race this year for the Lake Sammamish Half. With the last announcement from Governor Inslee taking the state back on their phases we are not going to be able to hold the 2020 Lake Sammamish Half as planned.

This year we will be celebrating the 2020 Lake Sammamish Half VIRTUALLY!

Through this difficult time we are happy that we can offer a virtual race, to keep spirits up, and people healthy. I know many runners set goals with this race, and we are excited to continue to support your running goals virtually this year.
I will be mailing out packets over the next few weeks, and all preregistered runners will be receiving an email in the next few days with instructions.

I know many of you will have additional questions, please wait until you receive your email before emailing. As you can imagine I receive many emails daily and do my best to get back to everyone but it does take some time.

We will also be announcing some new and exciting news regarding the 2021 season in the next couple of weeks, please keep your eye out for a newsletter.

Thank you all for your support over the years we look forward to a great virtual race this year and an exciting racing season for 2021!

Dana and Debbie
