The course is two distinct loops: one loop for the 5-mile run and another half-marathon(ish) loop for the longer distances. Marathon runners will do two loops of the half-marathon course, and 50K runners will do two half-marathon loops and then one 5-mile loop. We probably should note that the half-marathon loop is closer to 14 miles than 13 miles (gotta make up for those other missed races!)
All distances start from the Highpoint Way Trailhead and follow the Issaquah-Preston Trail for .5 miles before starting the climb. Rocky, technical switchbacks bring you up to the 5-mile course junction. The 5-mile takes a left and heads out on the loop of the lollipop, while the Half, Full, and 50K runners continue up Grand Ridge.
