Port Gamble, Washington · Saturday, October 31, 2026
The Spooky 10K Trail Race is a 10k and trail running event held on Saturday, October 31, 2026. It is located in Port Gamble, Washington.
Whether you're a seasoned runner, a casual jogger, or just looking for a fun, healthy way to start your Independence Day, this event is for you! Stick around after the race to enjoy the Edmonds 4th of July Parade and keep the celebration going. We are changing it up a bit this year and while there is still a chance to beat Ol’ Man Brackett, the focus is more on the parade and community fun. All proceeds benefit the Chamber's programming and bringing great events to Edmonds.
The 5K is timed and prizes are given for the top three runners in each gender and first place finisher in each age category. Winners will be recognized and prizes given shortly after the end of the race finish. View the 5K route here.
Shirt sizes are not guaranteed if you register after June 10th.
The 1K Family Run is a fun and exciting race for the whole family. $5 for kids 13 and under. $10 for participants over 13. Price does not include a shirt, but you can add one on at the time of registration. The 1K is untimed.
The Senior Saunter is a special 1K for all our active seniors! Bring your friends and take part at your own pace for this enjoyable distance. The 1K is untimed.
Start for both races is at Edmonds City Park and Finish line is at 4th and Main.
The 5K race route winds through the scenic streets of Edmonds and the Town of Woodway, culminating in a thrilling finish right on the Edmonds 4th of July parade route, where crowds cheer you on! The 1K distances head straight to the parade route from City Park!
Think you’re fast? Try to beat Ol’ Man Brackett!
For those speedier runners, a beloved element of the old Edmonds 5K, you can still race against a costumed runner portraying one of Edmonds' legendary founders, Ol’ Man Brackett—if you are the first 50 people, in the 5K, to beat him to the finish line, you’ll earn bragging rights for the year and a prize to prove it!

For the fifth straight year we're going free-range with our wild Turkey Trot at Newberry Hill Heritage Park. All events are run in the woods -- away from streets, sidewalks, and cars. The park offers a scenic 2.7 mile loop fire road which offers a great course for our 1-Mile, 5K and 10K events.
ONLINE REGISTRATION IS CLOSED. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR OPTIONS FOR IN-PERSON REGISTRATION.
NOTE: There will not be day-of-race registration available.
Changes in 2026:
We will NOT have race-day registration in 2026. We will, however, have last-minutes sign-ups in the week of the event. Please check back for details!
Medals will be presented to the top male and female finisher in each of th 1-Mile, 5K, and 10K events. Ribbons will be awarded for 1st - 5th place by event and age category for the 1-Mile, 5K, and 10K. As in the past a commemorative ribbon will be presented to all Kids-Dash participans.
In 2026 we are increasing the numbers of port-a-potties to alleviate the lines we had in 2024.
Since 2022, this has been a chip-timed event.
Since 2023, we have initiated a "Family Registration" (discount!) package. Please see below for instructions.
All proceeds from this event will benefit non-profit organizations and causes to fight hunger in our community.
Additional Information
Parking is available on the property of Klahowya Secondary School. Please enter off of Newberry Hill and follow signs to the parking area. Staging, registration, and kids' dashes will occur on an access road to the Heritage Park. From the parking lot this access road will be clearly marked.
Race packets will be distributed at multiple events during the week preceding the race. Packets will also be available on race day.
The 1-mile, 5K, and 10K events will be run on a wide fire road consisting of compact dirt and rock. The 10K course makes a small detour onto a narrow side trail to supplement the distance needed. 10K racers will run the fire road loop twice. The course will be marked, and staffed for clarity. See link below for a course map.
Strollers are permitted on the course. For 10K participants there is a detour off the fire road onto a path to add the necessary distance for the race. Unlike the fire road this stretch will require your attention as it gets narrow in a couple of places. However, the restricted area is only over about 100 feet in total. And durable strollers will be fine through this area.
Well behaved, leashed dogs are permitted (and welcome!).
Total elevation gain/loss for the course is about 200 feet per lap for the 5K and 10K (2 laps).

Each event will only be run once at the start time listed above. The estimated end time is not intended to suggest there will be a second running of the same event.
