Lake Sammamish Run Club

Evening Location (after daylight savings time only): We bring our own light stands to the International School in Bellevue (Map), allowing you to run without a headlamp.
Morning Location: A small group also meets at Lake Washington High School in Kirkland (Map). We don't have these tracks reserved, but they are free and open to the public outside of school hours and as long as another party is not renting them (which doesn't occur during early morning hours at either track or post dusk hours at the International School).
Meeting Point: On the track
Time: 6pm (Evening), 6am (Morning) (warmup starts at this point. Arrive 10 minutes early for a warmup.
Bathrooms: Lake Washington High does does not have its bathrooms open during this time, but the porta-potty next to the South Tennis courts (on 75th St) has been restored. The International also has a porta-potty at the bottom of the steps at the Southeast Corner.

Location: The Kirkland Urban complex (Map)
Parking: There is a garage below the QFC that is free with a validated ticket inside QFC (by making a purchase).
Routes: Each week we alternate between the following routes:

• Out n' Back on the CKC - North or South - packed gravel (most go ~3 miles/5k out before returning)
• Juanita via Waverly - 6.2 Miles/10k or 4.2 Miles/6.8k - hilly and paved
• Lake Washington BLVD/CKC Loop - 6 Miles/9.8k or 3.1 Miles/5k - one hill, paved and packed gravel

See our Facebook event for the specific route.

Meetup: Parking lot near the park entrance, by the water on the right (https://maps.app.goo.gl/Z2EuwJHQyNgeLkc29).

Parking: Aside from the specific parking lot where we’ll meet, there are many other parking areas inside the park. Check out the map beforehand and try to arrive a few minutes earlier just in case you end up parking at a different location.

Route: The route is very flexible. If you want you can keep it simple and just do multiple loops around Seward Park (a single loop is 2.5 miles). Or (recommended option) after completing a single loop venture north along the lake up to Colman Beach (that’s where trail ends) and then back with an optional loop around Genesee Park in the middle (https://www.strava.com/routes/3219114217205067118).
