Event
Details
Just over 250 runners came out to compete in both races combined in the
late summer 2008 running of Richland's Indian Summer Half Marathon
& 5K, which takes participants on a scenic out-and-back course
that
starts at the Columbia Point Marina and runs along the banks of the
Columbia
River, with views of the water for nearly the entire route as it
follows the Columbia River Trail to the turnaround point and back.
Quite appropriately named for the warm weather conditions that can
still be
in effect in Richland this time of year, both races in the event start
at 8:00 AM and feature views of the beautiful
fall leaves that are just beginning to turn as the summer gives way to
autumn in this part of Washington State. The half marathon race is open
to both runners and walkers -- those running the 13.1-mile route start
their race at 8:00 AM, while those walking the race start at 7:00 AM.
