13.1 Miles 26.2 Miles Half Marathon Run Trail

The second annual Rock Solid Marathon and Half Marathon (RSM) will take place on Saturday, February 28 at 8:00 am PST in Coupeville, Washington on Whidbey Island. Both races feature an unforgettable course with winding coastal roads and scenic trails. The races start and finish at the historic Captain Whidbey Inn, a beautiful wooden lodge on Penn Cove that dates to 1907. The course will first take runners along scenic Madrona Way into the heart of Coupeville, across the island over to the rugged beauty Ebey's Landing, and through the Kettles Trail System's windy paths. The Half Marathon will then return to the Captain Whidbey, while the Marathon will then take on a few miles of natural beach and the meandering country roads of Whidbey Island, and finally along Penn Cove back to the finish. Course maps and details are provided in the Events section below.

All runners will receive a custom race t-shirt and finisher medal.

The Captain Whidbey Inn will serve as race headquarters all weekend, and runners and their families are invited to book discounted rooms in their historic lodge using this link: https://tinyurl.com/RSMLodge. The lodge's acclaimed restaurant will also host a pre-race breakfast, and a celebratory dinner on Saturday evening where we will recap race stories, make toasts and give out unique race awards.

All profits from the RSM event will be donated to The Rock Solid Foundation, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit charity. Check the Donation option during registration for more information on the Foundation and how to donate directly to help us meet our fundraising goal.

We can't wait to see you on Whidbey Island!

    About the Event

    The Jefferson Healthcare Rhody Run is organized and produced by the Port Townsend Marathon Association, a charitable non-profit organization dedicated to fostering and encouraging runners of all ages—both in the school system and in the community at large. Nearly all aspects of this event are made possible by volunteers, and proceeds from the Rhody Run are returned directly to the community in the form of funding support for school sports programs and youth-oriented nonprofit organizations.

    Our goal is to produce a race where all runners—champion and beginner alike—feel that it is their race. We strive to live up to our long-standing motto:

    “The Run That Cares for the Runner.”

    Join us for a Family Fun Run at Windjammer Park on May 30!

    Oak Harbor Educational Foundation is hosting a fun run for both kids and grown ups with three lengths: A 5K route, a 1-mile student run, and a 1/2-mile student run!

    Sign up with your family and friends for this event along the Oak Harbor waterfront. For added fun, come dressed in your favorite 80s decade attire!

    The 1/2 mile student run will begin at 9 a.m., followed by the 1-mile student run and then the 5k run will be the last run.

    On event day, Kona Ice and Travelin' Toms Coffee will be available for purchase. And be sure to stop by MOD Pizza anytime on run day and mention Oak Harbor Educational Foundation or order online with the code MODGIVES20.

    Important Notes:

    • All students should be accompanied by an adult.

    • This run is not a chipped timed event. Instead a race clock will be keeping the time from the start for each run group/distance and can be viewed at the finish line.

    • The first run is the student 1/2 mile run, followed by the student 1 mile run. The 5K distance will be the last group to begin. At this time we cannot guarantee the exact start time of the 5K, but we encourage families and our community to come and hang out and cheer on the other runners!

    • Student races for the 1/2 mile and 1-mile race show recommendations for age. This is a recommendation, please register for the distance that is best for your child's ability.

    • Shirts and run bibs can be picked up before May 30. Details for when/where to pick up shirts and run bibs will be emailed out before the event.

    • Parking is available at Windjammer Park or near the water-treatment facility. Carpooling is encouraged.

    • Please leave your pets at home.

We create opportunities for students to thrive, receive scholarships for post-secondary education, and enable teachers and schools to provide supportive and innovative learning experiences.
