A Night to Remember
From the moment runners gathered at Woodin Creek Village, the atmosphere was electric. Music filled the plaza, glow gear lit up the crowd, and excitement buzzed as participants prepared to hit the course.
Woodin Creek Village once again proved to be the perfect backdrop for this community celebration. The welcoming businesses, vibrant atmosphere, and beautiful setting created an experience that felt uniquely Woodinville.

It Takes a Community
Events like the Summer Glow Run don’t happen without an incredible team behind the scenes.
A heartfelt thank you goes to our sponsors, volunteers, vendors, public safety partners, and the many businesses that helped make the evening possible. Your support allows us to create memorable experiences while giving back to organizations making a difference in our community.
And to every runner, walker, volunteer, spectator, and cheerleader—thank you for making this year’s Glow Run our biggest and brightest yet.

Until then… keep glowing, Woodinville!
Thank you to the 2026 Glow Run Sponsors. Without your support, we wouldn’t have such a successful event!
