The Lakewood Half Marathon in Lakewood, WA, offers a half marathon, 10k and 5k races. There is also a kid’s fun run, where family and pets are encouraged to walk or run with their kids.
The course layout has a mix of residential streets, parklands, and lake views. The path itself, in Fort Steilacoom Park, is fast and flat. There is a brief stretch along the lake. The 5K is open to walkers. There is an aid station with water and Gatorade, and participants must use their own reusable bottles.
At the finish line, racers receive a medal, shirt, and other swag.
