Gulch Countdown

Mukilteo, WA

Imagine a race that is open to all ability levels, designed to allow a pace conducive to socializing, yet also designed to challenge even the strongest of runners until there is only one runner left standing. Whether you are looking for a fun trail race to run with your friends or a race to push your limit and discover what you’re made of, this race is for you! Full aid station and pizza will be provided. $5 from every registration will go towards improving the trails of Japanese Gulch! There will also be a competition (and special recognition!) for the fastest lap of the day for men and women. What is the Gulch Countdown?The Gulch Countdown is a simple 2.18 mile loop in the forests of Japanese Gulch. Surrounded by lush ferns, knobby trees dripping with moss, and giant cedars, the rolling hills of the Gulch give you the feel of the mountains without leaving the backyard of Mukilteo. The Gulch Countdown is a timed race, but not in the traditional sense. How does it work?The Gulch Countd
