Seattle Ghost Marathon & Half

Race Technical Difficulty Score (RTDS) = 2

The Seattle Ghost Marathon is a 501c3 Non Profit that puts on a private donation only club run. Events include 13.1 half, 26.2 full and 50K options. This is a private club run starting from a tiny park (Ferdinand St boat launch in Google Maps) about 0.5 miles north of Seward Park in Seattle. Parking is limited to volunteers and finish area recovery so park off S Ferdinand St. in the nearby neighborhoods.

The course shuts down at 2:00 pm so plan accordingly. We have excellent volunteers, aid stations about every 3 miles, finisher medals, hoodies, covered recovery area with hot food and cold beverages. There will be 4 porta-potties at the start/finish and one at the Leschi aid station. The sidewalk nature of this course does not allow for dogs, strollers, or wheelchairs (sorry).

Race is USTAF certified (WA09059MW) and a Boston Marathon qualifier.
