PORT TOWNSEND — Registration is open for the Peninsula Trails Coalition’s New Year’s Day Discovery 10K Run and 5K Walk fundraiser at the Discovery Bay Golf Course.
Start time will be at 11 a.m. New Year’s Day, Thursday, Jan. 1, at the clubhouse at 7401 Cape George Road, which also will be the finish line.
The fee for each course is $20. To register, visit www.tinyurl.com/PDN-NewYearsRun.
The course is on the golf course cart paths along the fairways and connects with the Larry Scott Trail at Douglas Way.
The 10K runners will run to the Milo Curry trailhead and back, while the 5K walkers will turn back after about a half-mile on the trail.
A choice of either a New Year’s Discovery 10K or Discovery Olympic logo knit hat will be available to all participants.
Runners’ and walkers’ times will be available immediately after the event, and water and food are available for all.
The Peninsula Trails Coalition is a nonprofit organization that has worked to promote and maintain the Larry Scott and Olympic Discovery Trails.
All proceeds from the run/walk will go toward advocating the completion of the trail in Jefferson County to connect with the Olympic Discovery Trail across the North Olympic Peninsula, planned to run from Port Townsend to the Pacific Ocean at LaPush.
