Set your sights on the festive Luau 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon, taking place on Saturday, May 9, 2026, in scenic Everett, Washington. This vibrant event invites runners of all abilities to experience a Hawaiian-themed celebration at McCollum Park. Participants can choose their challenge from a 5K, 10K, or the demanding Half Marathon distance. Typical race day conditions in early May offer pleasant running weather, with historical highs around 62°F and lows near 46°F, and only an 11% chance of precipitation.

The course itself features an engaging out-and-back format, winding through the beautiful surroundings of Snohomish County. The 5K runners will complete this route twice, 10K participants four times, and Half Marathoners will conquer six laps, providing a consistent and measurable challenge for personal bests. Each finisher will be rewarded with a themed medal, and runners are encouraged to embrace the "Luau" spirit by competing for the best costume award, adding a unique and fun element to the race day atmosphere.

The race begins at 8:30 AM, with packet pickup conveniently available 30 minutes prior to the start. Be sure to register in advance on RunSignup, as there will be no on-site registration. Parking is available at the North Creek Trail, making for easy access to the start and finish lines.
