Lord Hill Trail Run 5K

About this race

The Lord Hill Trail Run 5K, held annually on February 25th in Snohomish, WA (98290, US), is a well-established local event that has become a fixture for trail running enthusiasts. While specific historical details are not provided, its recurring nature suggests a solid track record and a community built around this challenging yet rewarding 5K distance. Participants can anticipate a friendly atmosphere and a well-organized race experience, ideal for both seasoned trail runners and those looking to venture off the pavement for the first time. This 5K primarily navigates the scenic and varied trails of Lord Hill Regional Park. Runners should expect a dynamic terrain featuring a mix of packed dirt, rooty sections, and potentially muddy patches, especially given the February timing which often brings wet weather. The course is characterized by rolling hills, offering a moderate challenge rather than an extreme ascent, with some well-defined singletrack and wider forest paths. Notable features often include the lush, wooded environment of the park, providing a refreshing natural backdrop to the race, and the characteristic Pacific Northwest beauty that Snohomish is known for.
