Details
Nearly 1,200 runners and walkers crossed the finish line in both races
combined at the 2008 running of Woodinville's Super Jock & Jill
Half Marathon & 4-Mile Run/Walk, which takes participants on an
out-and-back course that starts and finishes at the Redhook Brewery in
Woodinville and features long stretches along rural country roads and
the paved trails that parallel the Sammamish River, which flows through
this area.
From the starting line at the brewery in the Tourist District on 145th
Street, runners follow what is roughly a clockwise loop along the race
route's out-and-back direction, heading out northward along Woodinville
River Road toward Sammamish River Park near Interstate 405. The course
then heads west over to Bothell Landing Park, passing by the edge of
Blyth Park on its way through the Bothell Landing Park's trails.
Runners will cross two bridges as they make their way around this turn,
which passes right by Bothell's Wayne Golf Course.
Next, runners then head northward through the park into the town of
Bothell, crossing under Highway 522 at about the mile 6 marker into the
University of Washington-Bothell campus. Runners make a loop for the
next few miles through the town and then re-connect with the Sammamish
River trail between mile markers 9 and 10, and then head through both
Sammamish River Park and Wilmot Park on their way back down toward the
Redhook Brewery for the race finish.
As both the 4-mile race and the half-marathon are open to both runners
and walkers, organizers will start those walking the half marathon at
8:00 AM, followed by the half marathon runners at 9:00 AM. Participants
can expect to encounter some rolling hills along the course as well as
plenty of flat stretches, particular along the trail sections that run
alongside the Sammamish River.
