About the Girlfriends Run Half Marathon

Girlfriends Run has spent nearly two decades raising money for breast cancer support, and the half marathon is its longest event. The field is built for women, roughly half of it walks, and proceeds go to the Pink Lemonade Project, a nonprofit supporting women in treatment.

Course

The half starts and finishes at Vancouver Waterfront Park and strings together out-and-back segments past Officers Row, Fort Vancouver, and the Columbia River parks. Some sections run tight, so expect two-way traffic rather than wide-open road.

Race-day weather

Mid-October in Vancouver usually means temperatures in the 40s and 50s with a real chance of rain. Wind along the Columbia can matter more than the modest terrain.
