Fun Facts about Burien Brat Trot:

This great fall family day includes a 5k or one mile race around Lake Burien followed by Bavarian Fest--a lively street party with bouncy toys, food trucks, photo booths, live music, kids crafts, a root beer garden and tons of fun! Many details can be found at www.burienbrattrot.com--but here are a few extras that make Brat Trot worth being part of!

Online registration is OPEN--Click HERE to Register!

You can also register in person on Saturday, October 1st from 1-4pm on the corner of 10th Ave SW and SW 152nd Street in Olde Burien, and Sunday, October 2nd from 11:00am to 12:30pm in the same spot!  See you at the 2015 Brat Trot!

The course:
BOTH COURSES (5k and one mile) begin at the corner of 10th and 152nd street. The 5k (USTAF certified) circles Lake Burien. The one mile race heads the same direction as the 5k start--and does a mid-course turn around for an out and back fun run! Both courses finish right where they started—and the corner of 10th and 152nd—in the heart of the Brat Trot Bavarianfest! The course has been marked with arrows, "BT" and we've even painted a few hot dogs for you...just to make you smile!
