The Experience

The Ninja 5K, 10K, and Half Marathon takes place in Vancouver, WA's Klineline Pond area, a small park setting with restrooms and parking. The course is a simple out-and-back on paved paths, repeated for longer distances. With a 3.5-hour time limit and packet pickup only 30 minutes before the start, this is an intimate, no-frills event.

Runners earn finisher medals and can compete for best costume. The atmosphere is low-key and community-focused, with basic post-race snacks provided. While lacking the scale of larger races, it offers a straightforward, accessible option for runners seeking a low-pressure half marathon or shorter distance.
