Thanks to all of you, the 2025 West Seattle 5k was a great success!
Thanks to all of you, today’s West Seattle 5k was a great success! Community, the schools and Alki Beach are some of the things we love most about West Seattle, and these all came together Sunday to make this the biggest West Seattle 5K yet.
We had nearly 1,700 participants and raised over $60,000 for much-needed programs for students, teachers and staff at West Seattle High School.
Thank you to the runners and walkers who participated, our generous sponsors, and our volunteers who made this happen.
Yours Truly, 2025 Race Co-Directors – Kelley O’Connor, Pam Hembrow and Athena Frederick
Your participation in the 5K run/walk helps cover educational programming like Saturday School, provide teacher mini-grants, and supports student clubs and more.
The 2025 event will be held on Sunday morning, May 18 at 9:30 a.m. along the beautiful Alki Beach. It's a fast, flat course great for avid runners, weekend joggers, walkers and families with children in strollers.
Enjoy a scenic waterfront run with stunning views of Puget Sound and the Seattle skyline. Course is flat and fast, starting and finishing at the Alki Beach House. Prizes for top three male and female finishers. Afterward, take advantage of one of Alki’s famous eateries, or enjoy a day of beachcombing while taking in all of the amenities Alki Beach has to offer.
Rain or shine. Strollers and leashed dogs okay. Race fee includes t-shirt and chip timing.
Please note, this is a fundraiser for West Seattle High School. Proceeds from previous events have been used to improve math, science, music, drama and communications.
