Race Description
Haggen to Haggen 5K is a fun annual event for runners and walkers alike.
It normally attracts over 1,000 participants in recent years, about evenly
divided between runners
and walkers. Haggen to Haggen is a relatively fast course that winds through several
neighborhoods, including downtown Bellingham.
It begins at Sehome
Haggens and ends at Meridian Haggens. Free busses will be available to
shuttle participants back to the start. The first two miles involve
level and descending terrain, including an exciting run through downtown Bellingham on
Holly Street. But runners and walkers need to save a
little something in their tanks for the final mile since there is a
slight uphill grade to test their endurance. Prizes are awarded to the
first three male and female RUN finishers. Walkers (noncompetitive)
start at 8:00 am and Runners start at 8:30 am.
Free with Haggens card or GBRC membership, otherwise $5.
Online registration will be available for Haggen employees, CARD members, and GBRC members.
