Super Marathon & Half Marathon

1500 feet gentle downhill loss, about 80' a mile. 
Get the flat 5 miles out of the way at Hyak by running away from the Tunnel for an out and back along a beautiful Lake. 
Runners catch their pace prior to entering the 2.4 mile tunnel, which if your pace isn't locked in can be thrown with the GPS not being accurate.
Runners are also spread out prior to entering the tunnel.
No hot flat 5 mile finish. 
No noisy freeway for 5 miles to your finish.
Enjoy Parking at the start and finishing in the shade!

The race begins at the Hyak Trail Head at Palouse to Cascades State Park. You get your legs in a groove and along a lake for 5 miles before entering the tunnel. Runners will be spaced out and locked into a pace when entering the famous 2.4-mile Snoqualmie Tunnel. You will emerge into the heart of the Cascade Mountains. From there, you have 1500 feet of gentle downhill descent as you glide across railroad tressels, past waterfalls, and take in the endless mountain vistas! USATF certified for a BQ or just a great fast time!

The Super Marathon is one of the fastest marathon courses in the country! This course is one of the country's top 10 Boston Qualifier Courses, with a BQ rate of over 34%! Enjoy 26.2 miles of scenic downhill with a gorgeous view of the Cascade Mountains as you glide down the gravel trail on this point-to-point course. This is the ONLY marathon course that features jaw-dropping views as you run along Keechelus Lake. With 1500’ of gradual net downhill, we assure you that you will “find your super fast” on the way to a speedy time, PR, or BQ!

From Hyak: From Hyak, head out of parking lot and make a left onto NF-906. At stop sign, make a left onto WA-906 North. Drive 0.4 miles and make a right to follow signs for I-90. Take ramp for I-90 west to Seattle. From I-90 west, take Exit 38 for SE Homestead Valley Road. At the bottom of the ramp, take a left onto SE Homestead Valley Road. Drive under the freeway and then make a right to stay on SE Homestead Valley Road. You will see a dirt road on your left about 0.2 miles after making the left. Park anywhere along SE Homestead Valley road and walk up the dirt road about 1 mile. When you get to the Iron Horse Trail crossing (you will see a somewhat cleared parking area with large metal gates on either side of the road where the trail crosses), go left onto the Iron Horse Trail. The finish line is located about 0.2 miles from the gate. DO NOT TRY TO DRIVE UP THE DIRT ROAD TO PARK CLOSER! THIS IS A RUNNER SAFETY ISSUE!
