Pick your pace for a "B'ham Bay" race.  

Whether you want to take a long stroll or set a new PR (personal record), you're invited to join in this year's Bellingham Bay races on Sunday, Sept. 21.

There's an event for every skill level: 5K, 10K, half-marathon and full marathon. All races take place on courses that make the beauty of our community shine. PeaceHealth will be there, providing all medical aid and supplies to racers. We hope to see you there. (Photo credit: BBM)
