From the Organizer

Run, walk or skip for Washington’s national parks! The Pacific Runderland 5K & Kids 1k Run is a charity event hosted in partnership with Washington’s National Park Fund (WNPF), the official philanthropic partner of the three national parks in Washington state.

5k registration includes finisher's medal, t-shirt, collective bib and free race photo downloads. Kids 1k registration includes finisher's ribbon and collective bib. Unfortunately, due to declining participation in the Virtual event and rising costs of shipping, there willl not be a Virtual option in 2026. Thank you for understanding.

5k course is USATF Certified (WA22015RMB).

Organized solely by volunteers, Pacific Runderland donates all race proceeds to WNPF. We have donated over $40,000 to help support our state’s most beautiful parks since 2019. The event is also in honor and memory of the race organizer’s late father, a runner and national park fanatic, who passed away from early-onset Alzheimer’s in 2012. Join us in Auburn, Washington at Roegner Park for the 5K run/walk and kids 1K run.
