Looks like the classic annual forecast for Sunday’s West Seattle 5K on Alki – partly sunny, comfortable temperatures. If you haven’t signed up yet, today is your **last chance** to do it the most convenient way – online. Here’s an update from race director Jeff Mensing:

Online registration for the West Seattle 5K Run/Walk ends tonight at midnight. Don’t delay, register today and take advantage of discounted fees. We will also be at the new West Seattle Runner location (2743 California SW) from noon to 6:00 on Saturday for registration and race packet pickup or at the Alki Bathhouse starting at 8:00 am Sunday the 17th. The race starts at 9:20 am.

The West Seattle 5K is presented by, and benefits, the West Seattle High School PTSA; we’re proud to be among the co-sponsors again this year. It’s the biggest 5K of the year on Alki, running/walking in the temporarily closed-to-vehicles street on Alki Avenue, with runners/walkers of all ages every year. See you there!

Does anyone know if there will be an official photographer this year?

I’ll be at the Registration tables early Sunday morning, so there’s no problem if you’re waiting until the last minute to joint the race!

Are they keeping the streets closed after the race like they usually do? They always had fun booths and vendors there in years past.

Abbyk, no, we reported that earlier this year. The city is not sponsoring a Summer Streets event. Local residents have put together some fun activities – without closing the streets – here’s our most recent story with some info on that:
