Jamestown S’Klallam

Jamestown S’Klallam is held in Blyn, Washington, on December 5, 2026, as a glow run on the Olympic Discovery Trail. Both distances, a 5K and a 10K, start at 4:30 p.m. on an out-and-back course that sets off at dusk and finishes in the dark. You need a headlamp or a flashlight to light your way, and one can be bought when you register.

Pick the distance by how comfortable you already are running at night rather than by your daylight fitness. The 5K keeps you out for a short, manageable stretch and is the sensible first attempt; the 10K asks for an hour of concentration on the trail surface. Whichever you choose, run the first mile deliberately conservatively while your eyes adjust, and carry a spare light source if you have one.
