Lampson Cable Bridge Run

This year marks the 48th annual running of the Lampson Cable Bridge Run! Finisher Medals will be given out to the first 2200 participants who finish the run. To receive your medal please ensure that your race bib is visible as you cross the finish line. So tell your friends and come out and enjoy this fun and exciting holiday tradition! Runners, no matter the distance they choose (5K or 10K) will start their race crossing over the Columbia River from Kennewick to Pasco, WA on the scenic Cable Bridge. The 1-Mile runners will end shortly after crossing the bridge and be shuttled to the 5K/10K finish area. The 5K & 10K finish line is located at the Lampson warehouse. At the finish line you will receive your medal and refreshments before proceeding to catch the shuttle bus back to the fairground's parking lot. 

There is a discounted, non-timed 1-Mile Fun Run category for those that want to experience the fun and excitement of this yearly event, and still receive the finisher medal. Also there is a Kids 4 & Under category that is free of charge. Participants in this category will receive their own special bib but will not be timed nor receive a finisher medal, instead they will receive a child's finisher ribbon.

For all timed race categories, timing chips are used and awards are given to the top participants in each age category. So if you are a competitive runner or someone who just wants to have fun walking with your friends, the Lampson Cable Bridge Run has what you are looking for.
