Running the Lake Sammamish Half Marathon? Post Your Photos on Patch!

The sold-out race takes place Saturday, March 9, on the East Lake Sammamish Trail.

The popular Lake Sammamish Half Marathon returns to the East Lake Sammamish Trail Saturday, with hundreds of runners and walkers trekking 13.1 miles from Marymoor Park in Redmond to Lake Sammamish State Park in Issaquah.

Are you participating in this weekend's big race? Tell us in the comments section.

The sold-out event is now in its fourth year and is put on by 4th Dimension Racing. Last year's top male and female finishers were Robert Thayer of Portland, Ore., with a time of 1 hour, 12 minutes, and Sheila Croft of Redmond with a time of 1:17. (Click here to see a photo gallery from last year's race.)

Unlike last year, the weather should cooperate for Saturday's runners. The forecast currently calls for sunny skies and a daytime high of 51.

If you're on the course this weekend, don't forget to add your photos and videos to our Pics & Clips community gallery. Good luck!

RASP is a wonderful group of writers from all walks of Redmond life. They hold an open mic on theRead More last Friday of every month at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center. Not only do they have featured readers like Kathleen, but the open mic portion encourages anyone from the community to read their work. It's regularly quite good. All those with a hunger to get their work out in the world should attend.
