Course
The course is located at Lower Woodland in Seattle. An exact course map will be made available at the start of the race, but it is a 2000m loop run three times for the 6k and four for the 8k. The start line is in the grassy clearing, approximately here.
Finishing and Scoring
The finish line will be clearly marked with a banner and clock. Scoring will take place at the end of the chute. The top five members of each team will score. There will be two displacing runners for each team. “B” team scoring will be performed only for declared “B” teams. Non-scorers will be removed from the scoring for an accurate score. For masters teams from clubs to score separately, clubs need to provide age information when signing up.
Results & Awards
Results will be uploaded online to athletic.net.
History
Emerald City Open was started by the UW in 1989. In the mid-1990s, with the advent of the Sundodger Classic, Seattle University was given the meet to host. Club Northwest started helping SU in 1997. In 2017, the meet host became Club Northwest. We are proud to keep this historic meet alive!
