Course Description

This certified 5K route is an "out and back", starting next to Redmond City Hall in their Municipal Campus Park and immediately joining the Sammamish River Trail heading north. The scenic route takes runners and walkers up to around the 11100 block before turning around to finish at Municipal Campus Park. This is a flat fast route that will lend itself to fast paces and quick times! Click here for a course map:  Course Map

About HERO House NW

HERO House NW, through its three Clubhouse programs in Bellevue, Seattle and Everett, provides people living with serious mental illness opportunities to find meaning and purpose through community and work. Clubhouse members can find jobs through our employment programs, and also receive support and assistance with embarking on new career paths, pursuing educational opportunities, and securing housing stabilization. Proceeds from the HERO House 5K go to support the Clubhouse programs of HERO House NW, which provides recovery and support services for people living with mental illness in the greater Seattle area.

Volunteers

We could not pull off this event without the amazing support of our volunteers. We have spots for everyone (groups, solo, early morning, later, heavy lifting or brain power!)  Sign up info coming soon.
