About the Christmas 5K/10K/Half Marathon in July - Spokane
The race runs on the Fish Lake Trail, a flat path that presents no real elevation challenge across any of the distance options. The shorter distances follow an out-and-back layout, while the half marathon takes a looping route along the same trail. Water stations are spaced along the course, though runners chasing a fast time may want to carry their own hydration.
Packet pickup runs the evening before at Fieldhouse Pizza and Pub in Liberty Lake, with race-morning check-in opening at the start site before the gun goes off. Age group awards are presented across men's and women's divisions for all distances.

Christmas 5K/10K/Half Marathon in July - Spokane 2026 Results
Going by the 2026 results, this is a small, friendly field, and the spread of finish times is wide, so this is a mostly recreational race rather than one for club runners.
