Run with the Chums was a blast this morning 🐟 What a fun way to kick off Whatcom Water Week! 🌊 We loved the fun facts along the way. Do YOU know how long a female orca can live? 🫍

Saturday, September 19th at 9am from Fairhaven Runners & Walkers ☀️

Join us for a shakeout before the big run! You don't have to be registered for a Bellingham Bay race to join the fun. We will be welcoming international runners with the Bellingham Sister Cities Association, so come say hello and wish them luck while meeting other participants.

Sunday race participants will be touring the waterfront, so we will head the opposite direction to soak in the beautiful fall foliage for a change of pace. The run will be 15 minutes out and 15 minutes back (30 minutes total) with a 10 minute pacer and a run/walk sweeper, but feel free to go whatever pace you like as the timed format allows us all to start and finish together.

There will be a limited supply of free nutrition samples from Carbs Fuel, a sign making station for spectators, and a few raffles post run. See you there! :-)

🚨New brand alert!🚨 Meet the Tracksmith Harrier Tee. Merino wool brings odor resistant properties to your run, so you can rewear your sportswear multiple times before washing. 37.5 degree Technology captures and releases moisture using particles from coconut shells and volcanic materials 🌋 meaning a less sweaty run experience 💗
