A portion of the proceeds from this race goes directly to NW Ultra's which is a nonprofit organization raising money to donate to various charities, our favorite is feeding the hungry in Seattle. Our events include 13.1 mile half marathon, 26.2 mile full marathon and 50 kilometer races.
Seattle Ghost starts at Ferdinand Street Boat Launch about 0.5 miles north of Seward Park in Seattle. Parking is limited to volunteers and finish area recovery so park off South Ferdinand Street in the nearby neighborhoods.
The course shuts down at 2:00 pm so plan accordingly. We have excellent volunteers, aid stations about every 3 miles, finisher medals, hoodies, covered recovery area with hot food and cold beverages. There will be 4 porta-potties at the start/finish and one at the Leschi aid station. The sidewalk nature of this course does not allow for dogs, strollers, or wheelchairs (sorry).
Race is USTAF certified (WA09059MW) and a Boston Marathon Qualifier.
