Blaine has a new 5k race.

Blaine-Birch Bay Park and Recreation District 2 (BBBPRD2) is hosting the Blaine Borderline 5k, which is set to take off from Blaine Harbor on Saturday, May 31.

Racers will leave the starting line at 10 a.m. at the amphitheater at Blaine Marine Park, 200 Marine Drive, and make their way around the harbor on the course, either running or walking.

The course goes toward Boblett Street, then north to H Street, east to 6th Street and then north to C and B streets, before heading back toward the amphitheater. No roads will be closed for the race, BBBPRD2 outdoor and facilities manager Laura Nesse said.

Check-in will occur from 8:30 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. near the amphitheater, and tickets can be purchased at the event as well as in advance online. Vendors, which will be at the park until 2 p.m., will sell everything from homemade arts and crafts to coffee and pizza. Face painting will also be available. 

A beer garden will open at 11 a.m. at Gateway 1890 Taphouse and Grill, 429 Peace Portal Drive.

Participating in the race costs $31 and tickets can be purchased online at bit.ly/4dlWhXO. The race is free for children under 14 years old.
