PARKING From the main entrance, take the first left and park next to the tennis courts. Head west on the trail in front of the tennis courts, and the starting line will be about a 1/4 mile away, just over the bridge.

MAPQUEST MAP AND DIRECTIONS


Grab your nose-riding surf cruiser, drop deck, or pumping machine, and join us Sunday morning, June 18th 2006!

For some the goal may be to get their best marathon (or a half marathon) time, while others may simply want to cruise the trail from Redmond to Seattle.

Estimated ride times:

13-miler, 1 hour fast, 2 hours pumpin, pushin and chillin

26-miler, 2 hours fast, 3 hours just pumpin and bumpin and squeakin and herkin like a gerkin.


This is the 3rd year long distance pumping Seattle's 13/26-mile marathon skate events!


p.s. If you want to check out the raucous Solstice PARADE that's June 17th Saturday...the street fair runs both Sat and Sunday -- http://www.fremontfair.com/

1st Place Finisher: Munson, 13m - N.Westberg, 20m
2nd Place Finisher: Peters, 13m
3rd Place Finisher: E.Westberg, 13m
Overall Results: The Outlaw Solstice turned out even better than the event originally planned. Everyone spent the first half hour pre-race just trying out a ton of boards. A lot of tasty, shiny carbon fiber out on the trail yesterday!

Everyone did the 13-miler, except for superstar Nick Westberg who missed the turnaround, detoured, fixed a truck that fell apart mid-race, clocked a total of almost 20 miles -- and still managed it in 2 hours!!

Derek just ate it up, taking the front runner position after a few miles and holding it to the end.

Results:

1st - Derek Munson: 56:23

2nd - James Peters: 58:00

3rd - Eric Westberg: 1:06:18

The rest of the crew came through strong - pumping MOST of the way!

Nick Westberg: 20 miles, 2:00:08
