Race Information
Whidbey Island is the perfect island weekend getaway where you can leave the city behind. Just north of Seattle, nestled up in Washington State's Puget Sound is Whidbey Island. As a destination vacation playground for many, the island provides a vehicle-accessible getaway from the busier mainland. Providing picturesque ocean views and tranquil farmland, the full marathon and half marathon courses of the Whidbey Island Marathon & Half Marathon promise to be as scenic and challenging as ever.
As a participant in the event, on top of a well-needed vacation, you will receive plenty of goods and services to help celebrate your accomplishments. Both the full marathon and half marathon courses will have plenty of on-course water and aid stations and finishers of both events will receive a custom-designed technical fabric shirt and a unique one-of-a-kind finisher's medal.
