Looking for a 5k or 10k in the PNW in June

Hey group!

I am signed up for the warrior dash in July, and the Leavenworth Oktoberfest 1/2 marathon in October, but I am looking for a race in June and not sure which one to choose. Anyone already signed up for one in June, or have a suggestion of a really beautiful course or fun race? I don't mind travelling anywhere in the PNW for a race, since my kids are grown and it will make a nice weekend holiday for my wife and I. Let me know what you got!

I don't know specifically what would be the best of this list, but I thought it might help... :happy:

Hi Tim,
The Survivor Mud Run is June 2nd and up in Carnation this year. Haven't decided yet if we are doing this one or not. Planning on the Warrior Dash in Bonney Lake though. Not doing the North Bend dash.

Oh, and this saturday at 9am there is the PBR (Poulsbo Beer Run) from Slippery Pig Brewery to Valholl and Sound Brewery. Its a whopping 3 miles (give or take) and you get a beer at each brewery (4 in all!) , not sure how close you are to Poulsbo or if you drink but it should be fun!!! I can't find anything online about it but they have registration forms at each of the breweries.

Damn, forgot about another one this Saturday in Tacoma. I am actually doing it also. There is a 5k and a 10k.

Vancouver Washington, just across the river from Portland, has their Marathon at the end of June. They have a 5K that I think is the same time (called Freedom 5K).
