Summer Sundae Run

Sunday July 4, 2021

Day Two of Summer Triple

Interbay, near Magnolia to Lincoln Park Pool

Since the West Seattle Bridge is out of commission we are going to run to West Seattle instead of driving.  This course takes you from Magnolia along the beautiful Elliot Bay trail all the way to West Seattle and provides great views of Seattle.  There are several stores along the course if you need more support however I will provide the box of snacks and water at the marathon half way point or turn around.  Parks along the course offer bathrooms and there is no bathroom at the start so come ready to run.

The half marathon course just takes you to under the freeway by the Duwamish Waterway.
The marathoners get to go all the way to Me-Kwa-Mooks Park where the snack box is.
The 50Kers get to go all the way to Colman Pool and then visit the snack box on the way back.

After you finish there will be a sundae bar set up for Sunday!

Course Directions:

https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/3794544949

This course starts in Magnolia down behind the Interbay golf course near the train tracks.  You will park on the local streets and begin your run at Thorndyke Ave W. and 20th Ave W.  You will run down the 20th Ave W. road and see the trail straight ahead of you.  Follow the Elliot Bay Trail south all the way to Myrtle Edwards Park and the Sculpture Park where the trail spits you out onto Alaskan Way.  Continue South on Alaskan Way even though MapMyRun wants you to leave Alaskan Way, stay on it until you see a trail on your right, take this trail, the Elliot Bay Trail.  Stay on the trail and Alaskan Way until it turns into E. Marginal Way.  Before Spokane St. the trail goes to the right to head West.  The trail now becomes West Seattle Bridge Trail and will take you up and over the lower West Seattle Bridge.  Follow the trail until you take a Right on Harbor Ave. W.  You will now follow this trail all the way to South West Seattle and Lincoln Park.  Just past the Colman Outdoor Pool in Lincoln Park you will turn around and return the same way you came.

The Marathoners will turn around just past the Me-Kwa-Mooks Park at S.W. Jacobson Rd.

The 50Kers will turn around just past the Colman Pool where the two trails merge.

If you are doing the half marathon, you would turn around at the Duwamish Waterway just when the trail turns in to the West Seattle Bridge Trail.
