Run Pick of the Month - Jewel of the Valley
Run along the Yakima Greenway Trail - May 11, 2024.
This race is part of the Run Super Series, it features a 5k, 10k, half, and full marathon.
One of the things we like is the terrain on the course. The run follows the mostly flat Yakima Greenway, however, you'll get full views of wineries, crops, and undulating terrain unique to the region.
Expect well supported out and back courses that are USATF certified (BQ eligible). Every participant will end up with a finisher medal and custom race shirt and a neck gaiter.
