Course Description

The Run & Walk will begin in the football stadium (on the track). The course takes you to Main Street in downtown Buckley and then on a flat 5K race in Buckley. Part of the course includes the paved Foothills trail. You will also be passing through parts of scenic, residential Buckley with views of Mt. Rainier. The race finishes with approximately ¾ of a lap around the track, finishing in front of the grandstands.

What’s so special about this race?

Buckley is a small town situated in the foothills of Mt. Rainier.  There is a rich history of agriculture and logging in the community. On this day, the annual Buckley Log Show and Parades take place. Spending a weekend or a day in the shadow of Mt. Rainier with several unique events makes for a nice mini-vacation.

Profits support a good cause

All profits from the race will support the White River High School boys and girls cross-country teams. Your participation will help young athletes enjoy the wonderful activity and joy of running.

Race Organizers

The White River Cross-Country team and supporters will be running the race. Jim Boyce, one of the White River Cross-Country coaches is the meet director.

Awards!

Awards for the top three male and female finishers in each age division will be given. There will also be a plaque awarded to the top overall male and female finishers.

Drawings/Prizes

Merchandise and other prizes will be awarded by random selection. The prizes will be provided by sponsors of the event.
