About this adventure
A South Sound family tradition for decades, Metro Parks Tacoma Norpoint Classic invites runners, walkers, and multi-generational families to celebrate Thanksgiving morning in Northeast Tacoma. Starting and finishing at the Center at Norpoint, participants choose between a chip-timed 5K run and a relaxed 2-mile walk through the scenic Browns Point and Northeast Tacoma neighborhoods with views across Commencement Bay.\n\nThe route features paved suburban roadways suitable for strollers. Little trotters love the spirited atmosphere, commemorative event shirts, and holiday music at the start/finish line. Indoor restrooms, heated staging areas, and ample community center parking make this an accessible and low-stress holiday tradition for families with young children.
