Embrace the Pacific Northwest winter with the No Sun Fun Run, an annual, non-competitive event designed for all ages and abilities. Taking place on Saturday, January 31, 2026, in Puyallup, WA, this spirited run offers both a 5K and a 1-mile distance, inviting runners, walkers, and even leashed dogs to hit the beautifully forested Nathan Chapman Memorial Trail. Typical race day conditions see highs around 48F and lows near 38F, with a 24% chance of precipitation, but rest assured, this race goes on "rain, hail, sleet, or snow" – a true celebration of South Sound's winter spirit.

The 5K course itself is a highlight, known for being very flat and stroller-friendly, making it accessible to everyone looking for a fun outing. Starting and finishing at the Heritage Recreation Center ball fields, the route guides participants along the scenic Nathan Chapman Memorial Trail, through South Hill Park, and around forested wetlands before returning to the finish line. All 5K participants receive a race bib and a keepsake medal upon completion, with race packet pickup available at check-in, which begins at 8:30 a.m. The official race start for all distances is 9:30 a.m. Join the community at the Heritage Recreation Center, located at 9010 128th Street East, Puyallup, and kick off your year with an invigorating run, no matter the weather.
