Runners -- heads up! There's a new half-marathon and 10k starting in October in Maple Valley called the Run for the Gnomes. Sponsored by Maple Valley Rotary, it's a race designed for speed and serenity. This fast, flat, and scenic course offers runners the perfect blend of challenge and tranquility, winding through peaceful landscapes that make every mile enjoyable. Whether you're aiming for a personal best or simply soaking in the atmosphere, you'll love the smooth, well-marked route.
Choose between a half marathon and a 10K, each thoughtfully planned to highlight the area's natural charm while providing an excellent racing experience. With supportive volunteers, clear signage, and a welcoming race community, this event is ideal for runners of all levels.
And keep an eye out—you might just spot a mischievous race gnome along the course! Rumor has it, he's been training for months, but given his tiny stride, he’s still working on that first mile. If you happen to see him, give him a cheer—gnome support is just as important as runner support!
Get ready to push your limits—or simply enjoy the journey. Lace up and join us for an unforgettable race day in Maple Valley!
