Dugan’s Fun Run @ Dugan's Pizza
Mar 22 @ 8:00 am
Dugan's Fun Run @ Dugan's Pizza | Ocean Shores | Washington | United States

In 2015, Dugan’s Pizza in Ocean Shores will be holding the 30th edition of their Dugan’s Pizza Fun Run, making it one of the longest lasting races in all of Grays Harbor. Starting across the street from Dugan’s Pizza, the 5k and 10k are half on the road and half on the sandy shores of the Pacific Ocean. The course is incredibly flat, with the run along the beach always popular no matter the weather. This is a great family-friendly running event, with a youth mile and kids dash all part of the day’s festivities. Celebrate 30 years of running by heading to Dugan’s Pizza for the annual fun run, you will have a blast!

Run for the Birds @ Downtown Hoquiam
May 2 @ 9:00 am
Run for the Birds @ Downtown Hoquiam | Hoquiam | Washington | United States

What better way to celebrate the return of hundreds of thousands of shorebirds than by lacing up your shoes and running through the streets of Hoquiam. With a race shirt and a goodie bag for those who pre-register, this race welcomes both runners and walkers who enjoy getting out and running as thousands of migrating shorebirds and hawks fly overhead. Mostly flat and weaving through the city and near Bowman Field, those who participate in this run will not only get fresh air and a great experience, but will also have a deeper connection with the city and with the Grays Harbor Shorebird Festival. Fun for all ages, this run shouldn’t be missed.
