The Great Ferry Race

Join us for the Great Ferry Race—a half marathon like no other! Starting downtown, step aboard the ferry for a captivating 35-minute ride to Bainbridge Island. Get ready to hit the ground running directly from the ferry dock and immerse yourself in the enchanting mix of roads and groomed trails circling the island. Be thrilled by the hilly terrain and revel in the natural beauty that surrounds you. Celebrate your finish with our festive post-race bash, and then cruise back to Seattle at your leisure.

Take note, this challenge is hilly and part trail—perfect for the adventurous spirit, but those less comfortable with trail runs might wish to consider another race. For Bainbridge Island and Kitsap County locals—join in without the ferry ride and snap up a special discount. Plus, fantastic age-based discounts are available for participants under 18 and those 65+. If you’re all about running and camaraderie, be sure to check out our bundle options for multiple races. Get your running shoes ready and sign up today for an unforgettable experience!
