The Experience

The Gobbler Half Marathon, 10K, and 5K take place in Spokane, Washington, offering a straightforward racing experience. The course is designed as an out-and-back, utilizing the Ben-Burr trail. The half marathon completes the out-and-back section six times, while the 10K does it four times and the 5K twice.

With an elevation gain and loss of approximately 0 feet, the course is notably flat, making it a potential candidate for personal bests. Runners have a generous time limit of 3 hours and 30 minutes to complete their chosen distance.

The race is organized by US Road Running, with a focus on essential race elements. Participants can expect finisher medals and shirts, with opportunities for costume awards and series points. Packet pickup is available shortly before the race start.

Race-provided description

US Road Running Races US Road Running races are built for runners and walkers who like friendly, low-pressure race days with just enough competition to keep things exciting. Our events are local, welcoming, and easy to jump into, whether you are chasing a PR, collecting another themed medal, working toward series points, or just getting outside with good people. Most races are small enough to feel personal but organized enough to feel official. You can expect a clear course, helpful race staff, finisher medals, results, and a relaxed community feel. Bring your fast shoes, your steady walking pace, your favorite running buddy, or your best “I signed up for this on purpose” smile. We will be glad to see you at the start line. A quick race-day note: because many US Road Running events are small local races, we normally have one or two staff members at each race. EMS is not stationed on site, and water stations are limited to the finish area at the end of each lap and at the race finish. Please plan for the weather, bring anything you may want between laps, and check in with race staff if you need help.
