Chuckanut 50k

In the early years (early 2000s) our medical plan was to alert the local hospitals of 300 people running in the Chuckanuts and my Mom (a registered nurse) who was also serving soup at the finish line. As the race has grown and the sport has boomed advancing our medical has evolved as well. We are so thankful for the professional service provided by - from connecting with the local emergency services, coordinating finish line staff including the local high school Athletic Training program, to building a 20+ page emergency action plan and helping greet all runners at the finish line with massage and PT.

Bellingham benefits greatly having this all encompassing service for events and our day to day lives! Thank you Prime Sports Institute for keeping us strong and moving!

Initially, I was like dang it! I wish we could’ve launched these at the race two weeks ago…

Love these! Happy April Fools!!

We have challenged to cover the ENTIRE race! Livestream is all the way through to the 4pm cutoff. These bike and runner cameras are looking for all the Chuckanut 50k stories they can find 🤩.

Did you know that Chuckanut 50k race HQ bases out of the KUL chocolate factory? provides space to sort aid station supplies, receive sponsor gear and, the best part, everything smells like chocolate! 😄. Chocolate bars enter our age group prizes and we stay well snacked in the lead up 😉. We’ve done a special anniversary KUL chocolate bar to benefit Girls on the Run and when it all boils down to it, we get to work with the best humans. 🤗
