Established 2005, the Seattle Running Club is a Puget Sound-based running group that celebrates the beauty of our region and our personal potential with training, competition, and community. While the club offers a unique focus on trail running, members also rally on the road, track, and cross country course.
Thanks to everyone who came out to the July Cougar Mountain Trail Run Series! Fourth race of the series is on August 8 — join us!

Trail work party
August 1, 2026 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
SRC will be hosting its fourth Cougar Mountain Trail work party of 2026 on Saturday, August 1st from 9 am to noon. As the year goes on, the races get longer and so we have more miles to cover before the next Cougar trail race on Saturday, August 8th. Please contact Mike Stewart for more details or to sign-up at trailwork@
seattlerunningclub.org. We will meet at Sky Country trailhead on Cougar Mountain at 9 a.m. on Saturday and will work for about 3 hours. We will be using hand clippers and saws to clear the trail for the 14.5 mile and 26 mile courses, as well as marking any larger hazards so King County crews can take care of them. King County Parks provides tools and gloves and SRC provides lunch for all volunteers! Please RSVP by end-of-day Friday, July 31st to get your lunch order in (typically Panera Bread).
