What is Reso Run?
The Resolution Run is a 5K run/walk and post-race celebration of the start of the New Year, with an optional Polar Plunge into Lake Washington.
Free chili, hot chocolate, apple cider! ★ Over 60 divisional prizes! ★ Long sleeve shirt or medal! ★ Free kids dash! ★ Beer garden (21+) if New Years Eve wasn’t enough!
Polar PLUNGE
The optional Polar Bear Dive into Lake Washington is located just before the finish line. Roughly 60% of runners chose the Polar Bear Dive. We will have two heated gender specific changing room tents onsite for participants to change into dry clothes. Polar plunge and “dry” 5k results scored separately.
