The seventh-annual Big Backyard 5K is happening on Sunday, June 5 at Marymoor Park in Redmond. This run/walk is an event for the whole family, and it’s dog and stroller friendly! All participants will receive awesome t-shirts, refreshments, snacks, prizes, and the satisfaction of supporting King County Parks! And thanks to our friends at Harborstone Credit Union, the Big Backyard 5K hoodies that everyone has grown to love will available for purchase until May 13. The chip-timed course winds around the magnificent (but flat) Marymoor Park, and for kids ten and under, there a free ¼ mile Kids Dash.
